A system overview of U-NetBe a professional radio network design tool for 3G, completely support GSM/TDMA,GPRS-EDGE, cdmaOne,W-CDMA / UMTS and CDMA 2000/1x RTT/EVDORealize mobility of planning design, supporting a wide range of project applications, single-processor configurations, and Enterprise server-based network configurations. The single-processor version does not requiring connecting external database and users can still share engineering data.Open, expandable platformFriendly interface and be easy to install, operate, tune models and generate reports

Modules in U-NetModular structureModular including :the basic core module, 3G module, measurement module, AFP (Automatic frequency planning) module and microwave moduleSelect different modules based on demands

Requirement of U-NetSoftware and hardware requirements for U-Net:U-Net work stationPC Pentium 3 processor or better.More than 256 MB memory. 512 MB memory is suggested.Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000 Professional/Windows XPU-Net single-processor version neednt external databaseMulti-user configurations supports the following database management systems (unsuitable for single user)Microsoft Access 97/2000Microsoft SQL Server 7.0Oracle v8.1.7 or higherSybase Adaptive Server V 11.5

GIS FunctionsWorld coordinates system database - Support 1000+ kinds coordinates - New coordinates system can be easily added in Integrated with other GIS tool, for example, MapInfo, and Arcview - Import: Geographical data, traffic/population density map - Export: Coverage prediction map, vector data and polygon

GIS FunctionsSupport various map formatsRaster data: BIL, TIF, BMP, MapInfo, ArcView, ERDAS Imagine, MSI PlanetVector data: MapInfo, ArcView, DXF and MSI PlanetSupport high-resolution map Supported resolutions up to 1-metre precisionSupport various map typesDigital Elevation Model (DEM) Clutter data (type and height)Three-dimensional building data (raster and vector)Traffic data or population density dataSatellite and navigation map

U-Net Propagation ModelIndustry standard propagation modelsOkumura-Hata and Cost-HataStandard Propagation Model (SPM)ITU 526-5 and ITU 370-7 propagation modelLongley-Rice and WLL propagation model

Advanced propagation calculation engine

Support third-party propagation models, such as, Wavesight, Volcano, and Winpro.

U-Net Propagation ModelDual-resolution pathloss matrixTwo pathloss matrices per transmitterPropagation model, resolution and calculation radius definable at pathloss matrix levelBenefitsAccuracy near transmitter (high resolution)Calculation time and disk space optimization far from transmitter (lower resolution)

Measurement Module Import of CW measurement data

Import and display CW dataAutomatically correct the propagation model according to CW measurement Prediction/measurement comparison, analysis

Import of measurement data of drive test

Import, display and analyze testing mobile data Playback on the map according to user-defined routes Analyze and display call eventsAutomatically correct the propagation model according to drive test dataPrediction/measurement comparison, analysis

Traffic mapPurpose of traffic mapDistribute some mobiles to digital map.

Ways to create a traffic mapTraffic raster maps based on environmentsTraffic vector maps based on user profilesTraffic map based on transmitters and services

Traffic raster maps based on environmentsEach raster of the map is assigned an environment classTraffic map is created based on combination of environment class ,user profile, user density and mobility

Traffic vector maps based on user profilesEach polygon or line contains a density of subscribers with given user profile and mobility types

Traffic map based on transmitters and servicesLive traffic spread over the service area of each transmitter
