Radius (m)
Required Tilt calculated for Coverage Boundary (Deg)
- If 'Above Horizon' is shown, increase 'Antenna Tilt (Deg)'. Upper half power point is above horizon.
Coverage Boundary Height => Site
Height
- If 'Coverage Boundary Height => Site Height' is shown, coverage boundary height => Site height.
Decrease 'Terrain Height Diff @ Coverage Boundary' value.
Input Parameters
- Difference between Terrain height at site location and Terrain height at coverage boundary.
(-'ve = lower than Site height and +'ve = higher than Site height.)
- Only affects Calculated tilt
- Only affects Calculated radius
Comments
- Affects both calculated tilt and calculated radius.
New antenna types and associated vertical beamwidth can be added to table located in
"Antenna Specs" sheet.
Table can also be increased to cater for more antennas, however Table CANNOT be moved.
- Select antenna type.
