calculate the maximum coverage radius of TCHs or pilot channels by using the maximum
path loss and the traffic model. This module covers two parts:
z
The link budget module does not need to inherit the calculation results of other modules, and
outputs the cell radius.
Pilot Ec/Io
The pilot RSCP threshold and Ec/Io are calculated on the basis of the cell radius and
pilot power.
Pilot power
The transmit power of pilot channels is calculated on the basis of the cell radius.

The Office components and .NET Framework 2.0 are necessary to run the RND. Without the
Office components, users cannot import and export data; without the .NET Framework 2.0,
the RND 4.0 cannot work.
For details on Office components, see Appendix B "Installing Microsoft Office Enterprise
2007 Components." The following sections describe the procedures for installing the .NET
Framework 2.0 and the RND 4.0.

To obtain the RND parameter template, you need to perform the export of parameter and results function.
To import parameters, use the exported Excel file as the template, modify the parameters, and then
import the Excel file into the RND 4.0.
Importing Parameters
The data to be imported should support the network type and version of the present project.
For example, for a project of GSM technology, only parameter files of GSM networks can be
imported.
To import parameters into an open project, perform the following steps.
Step 1 Choose DataIO > Import Parameter. Alternatively, click
