LBA RF Engineering Capabilities
Mobility, Fixed, and Broadcast Services
General Technical Features:
- All frequency coverage: 30 MHz to 60 GHz
- Complete selection of the most accurate propagation prediction models, including capability to create custom propagation model algorithms. Free space optics (laser) propagation modeling is also available.
- Most coverage study capabilities include shadowing, path loss, BER, field strength, received power, C/(I+N), percent service availability, group-to-group interference, base-to-mobile and mobile-to-base signal levels.
- Point-to-multipoint studies for MMDS, LMDS, and WLL systems.
- Full microwave path analysis including path profile, rain and fade outage, percent availability, dispersive fade margin, antenna diversity reception, and cross-link interference.
- Adaptive capabilities for considering trees, buildings, or terrain elevation enhancements in propagation link studies, and such factors as occupied bandwidth in interference studies.
- Evaluation of omni, directional or adaptive (“smart”) antenna types and ability to define antenna patterns for transmit and receive antennas (including co- and cross-polarization patterns).
- Extensive database support - U.S. and worldwide terrain, canopy, groundcover, demographic, building and traffic data can be added as map layers in signal studies. Compatibility supported with ArcView® terrain elevation files and Planet® terrain elevation and land use (clutter) files, and other industry databases.
- Database and full function support of all FCC radio regulations and applications
- Full support for fixed optic (FSO) laser networks
Documentation and Management Capabilities:
- Composite grid, 3D mesh, composite contour, color gradients and radial line map plot types for signal studies, terrain, groundcover, demographic, and traffic data. Area studies can be displayed as colored gradients draped over terrain or as transparent study layers. There are also capabilities for shaded terrain relief with illumination control, integrated 3D building and terrain displays, as well as raster map images and aerial/satellite photos flowing over 3D terrain displays.
- Analysis software permits unlimited number of area studies and multiple maps creation. It includes a full set of drawing tools for adding text, symbols, lines, polygons, buildings, etc. to study maps. Polygons can also be used to create custom traffic, demographic, land use (clutter), or ground conductivity databases.
- LBA supports a wide variety of vector and raster map data layers including .BNA files, MapInfo® files, ArcView® files, .DXF files, scanned images of aerial photos, satellite photos, and other maps.
- Full project management capabilities for large project support and documentation, including workgroup sharing of centralized network database and ability to drill down through multiple layers of analysis and GIS information to get a comprehensive report of everything that is known about the system and environment under study.
