Users may assign frequencies manually or automatically using the Frequency Assignment process

The FA Process examines the available channels and assigns the channel with best criteria






The SE utility regards all the links as one entity (plan)

This is why this step should be performed after assigning the frequencies

In case of interferences, the tool advises which link(s) needs to be modified to allow completing the plan successfully


Radio Analysis Tools

• LOS Coverage

• Link Extrude / Intrude

• Profile Analysis

• Mutual Interference

Line of Sight coverage can be configured to display 360deg coverage and/or sector areas

Every LOS display can be configured by the user:

•Dedicated color & opacity•Radio height (local & remote)•Radius



• LOS Coverage




Radio links can be displayed as 3D Walls for better LOS analysis



• LOS Coverage




Fresnel zones and clearance factor and displayed per link
