User capacity based planning tool for Wi-Fi and WiMAX networks

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:A simple wireless planning tool (WPT) is proposed, which facilitates the design and implementation of wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), and worldwide microwave access (WiMAX) networks in indoor and outdoor environments. The tool gives to professional planners practical and useful information through quick procedures as the output is the number and position of the access points (APs), or an estimation of the total cost of implementation, based on data provided by different equipment manufacturers. It uses innovative algorithms for computing the best position of each AP. Carrier-to-noise and carrier-tointerference issues are discussed in detail, and a practical deployment of a single WiMAX cell in Covilhã is presented. There is a need of using sectorial antennas to guarantee an adequate coverage and interference mitigation.
