The latest release of our private server, SOOTHSAYERTM is now available with bigger limits, better reference data, VSphere 8 enterprise GPU support, enhanced security controls and improved performance. GPU clutter attenuation The GPU engine can now model clutter attenuation in the same way as the CPU engine, only much faster. […]
Taggle supplies the Australian water industry with innovative smart water meters and analytics, connected with Taggle’s Byron DSSS sub GHz radio technology, which is Australia’s most widely deployed LPWAN technology. As a long time CloudRF customer, Taggle use the service to efficiently plan and deploy new gateway sites and also […]
On Saturday 6th May the worlds media descended on London for the Coronation of King Charles, an event last planned before many people had television. As the national broadcaster, the BBC managed the coverage and worked with Neutral Wireless to deploy an innovative private 5G network, with dedicated spectrum, along […]
“I’ve never seen modelling that matches the real world” Anon Noise in the RF spectrum is a growing issue. It undermines the performance of systems and requires careful spectrum management and deconfliction to mitigate its impact. Sources of noise can be natural, industrial or man made. Regardless of the source, […]
Summary We field tested our software to improve it for beyond line of sight planning. From analysis of data we have improved diffraction accuracy, clutter profiles and crucially have proven that high resolution LiDAR is not the best choice for beyond line of sight or sub GHz modelling. An RMSE […]
Today we have launched a new GPU accelerated API called “Multisite” which is capable of modelling hundreds of sites in the time we previously would have done one. This exponential increase in capability grew from our Best Site Analysis (BSA) capability which uses a Monte Carlo technique to test hundreds […]
Here’s a roundup of what’s changed since June. As always it’s been a busy period of development which we’ve matched with a focus on maintenance and bugfixes. Our backlog of feature and change requests stands at 28 for the UI and 23 for the API with all priority issues resolved. […]
As communications systems have grown in capacity, they have expanded in physical bandwidth in an increasingly congested RF spectrum. Effective digital communications planning requires more than knowledge of antennas and propagation fundamentals. It now needs an intimate understanding of bandwidth and noise to co-exist and communicate efficiently. Unfortunately, this key […]
This blog is about modelling the RF propagation of a private LTE Band 48 (b48) “CBRS capable” base station. Citizen Band Radio Service (CBRS) has exploded in popularity in the US since 2020 when the FCC allocated 150MHz of bandwidth from 3550 to 3700MHz for public use. Keen to exploit […]
Location aware radios Modern digital radio systems often have Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for remote management. They also commonly have Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) modules for location awareness which enables “network maps” of where the nodes are. These vendor maps are great at showing where nodes are now (provided […]
We’ve been busy as always improving our service. Here’s a visual roundup of updates we’ve pushed recently for API version 2.9 and UI version 2.8, current as of the 13th June 2022. For the latest updates click the versions in the corner of the interface. New features Variable building heights […]
We took a field trip to model LTE (4G) coverage in order to collect data we can use to develop calibration utilities and improve modelling as modelling is only as accurate as your inputs. We focused on a single remote cell in the Peak District national park identified through cellmapper.net. […]
Our fast GPU engine is perfect for modelling wireless coverage We have developed the next generation of fast radio simulation engines for urban modelling with NVIDIA CUDA technology and Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). The engine was made to meet demand across many sectors, especially FWA, 5G and CBRS for speed […]
Team Awareness Kit (TAK) has become the poster-child for defence innovation, transforming mapping, command and control and situational awareness with a relatively lightweight smartphone app. Never in the history of defence procurement have so many forces, nations and equipment vendors achieved tactical interoperability with impressive results. Key to it’s success […]
In radio planning, accurate terrain data is only half the story. The other data you need, if you want accurate results, is everything above the surface such as buildings and trees. This is known as land cover or in radio engineering; clutter data. Clutter data In October 2021, the European […]
Today we published a new release for our SOOTHSAYER self-hosted server focused on data management and stability. It brings the VM up to date with the public service in terms of new features (Route analyis, Multipoint analysis, Mesh by visible, 3D fresnel) and fixes multiple user/data management issues identified through […]
In this study we look at modelling long range microwave links and the key parameters which help get the best out of mobile microwave terminals. When sited properly, a low power microwave terminal can communicate over 100km. When sited badly the same terminal can fail to communicate 5km… A brief […]
LeafletJS (32k stars on Github) and it’s predecessor Openlayers (8k stars) are very popular web mapping libraries in use with companies and organisations the world over. They provide powerful, fast and easy client side 2D maps written in Javascript which can show almost any type of data… Whilst typically used […]
