While most cellular network operators recognize the need to densify their networks in order to fill coverage gaps and increase capacity, pinpointing the best locations for new radio devices and analyzing the resulting impact on the entire network is extremely challenging. Answering questions such as “Where will small cells or remote radio heads have the most impact?”, “Should they be indoor or outdoor?” or “How much will they improve my macro cell network performance?” is difficult if not impossible with traditional RF planning tools. NetView 360® eliminates the guesswork by offering a comprehensive service for designing heterogeneous networks. Operators can now accurately plan a true HetNet including indoor small cells, DAS, outdoor small cells, remote radio heads and Wi-Fi. NetView 360 can also analyze changes to the macro cell network and deployment of additional spectrum. By combining innovative traffic modeling, high-resolution RF planning, Complete HetNet Deployment Planning & Design Service backhaul/real estate assessment, and comparative business case analysis in a scalable manner, NetView 360 enables operators to confidently optimize coverage, capacity and network performance.

While most cellular network operators recognize the need to densify their networks in order to �ll coverage gaps and increase capacity, pinpointing the best locations for new radio devices and analyzing the resulting impact on the entire network is extremely challenging. Answering questions such as “Where will small cells or remote radio heads have the most impact?”, “Should they be indoor or outdoor?” or “How much will they improve my macro cell network performance?” is di�cult if not impossible with traditional RF planning tools.

NetView 360® eliminates the guesswork by o�ering a comprehensive service for designing heterogeneous networks. Operators can now accurately plan a true HetNet including indoor small cells, DAS, outdoor small cells, remote radio heads and Wi-Fi. NetView 360 can also analyze changes to the macro cell network and deployment of additional spectrum. By combining innovative tra�c modeling, high-resolution RF planning,
