Introduction to RF Planning
Chapter 6 –
Advanced RF Planning
Objectives
• Survey
• Draft plan
• Dictating Factors
• Macros Initially
• Growth Phase
• On-going Activities
Customer Requirements
• Network boundaries
• Government requirements
• Budget restrictions
In-building coverage
• Classify buildings:
– Hotels/Restaurants
– Commercial
– Industrial
– Residential
– Shopping Malls/Markets
• Propagation tests in a number of buildings of each variety
• RF signal on the road Vs signal inside buildings gives penetration loss
• Repeat tests in as many buildings as possible to get an estimate of
building loss for the area
• In-building coverage affected mostly on ground floor/basements
• Typical values (examples only):
– Hotels/Restaurants Commercial 15dB
– Commercial buildings 20dB
– Shopping Malls 15dB
– Industrial estates 12 - 15dB
– Residential buildings 15 - 20dB
– Old/historical buildings 25 - 30dB
Planning Tool Preparation and Model Calibration
• Authorised Maps
• Map Categories
Key Points
• Coverage probability
• Edge Probability
• Cell radius
• Residential/Suburban areas
• Industrial areas
• Quasi-open areas
• Highways
