A very good software. used for viewing maps, but in telecom people use it to have records of their sites.it has become an essential in telecom sector. extra tools written in mapbasic also supports various functions help the telecom engieers
multiple uses, depends why u want to use it
Hi,I
need software in UMTS planning and optimization. If it possible, a free one if not i will see how can I have it. For the moment I need to discover the better one.
Thanks for your interest
HI!
I don't think you can use MapInfo for RF planning purposes.
As gauiver said it is often used in the mobile telephone industry to map test results
and compare it with planning.
It can be used also for post-processing and analysis but you must have data to map.
For what you're asking, I don't think you could easly find a free planning sw for 3G planning and optimization.
I can suggest, among the others, Nemo Analyze from Nemo Technologies (h**p://www.nemotechnologies.com/index.php?267) ...but you have to pay.
no, it can't be used for RF planning. It's just used to keep data. It's done quite easily through mapinfo. Map Basic is used to program utilities for map basic. Planning softwares are heavy so we use map basic for viewing maps and cell sites.
I guess there are still some things you can do in mapinfo for UMTS Planning. Of course you cannot get things like coverage prediction and drive testing measurement. But you can still do manual neighbour planning, scrambling code planning...etc. It depends on how you write your program.I can even do GSM frequency planning with Mapinfo (of course with some help from Mapbasic).....plotting of drive test data on map is also possible. So it depends which part of planning that you are talking about.
This sw is an implementation of the ITM model which could be fine for many applications. I don't think you have to plan a cellular netowrk, for most purposes it
should be fine.
