Coverage Analysis (Measurements | Properties)

If you select “Coverage Analysis” from the “Purpose” dropdown then this powerfule utility can be used for several purposes:

  • Upload location data eg. zip / postal codes which can be used to gather metrics about coverage for areas and points.

  • Upload RF survey data which can be used to calibrate and optimise simulation settings by reporting the error

Importing Locations

You can upload a CSV with data about multiple points, for example customer properties by ZIP or UPRN.

For basic ‘points’ your CSV should follow the following rules:

  • The following fields are accepted:

    • id is a unique identifier of the point.

    • latitude is the latitude coordinate of the point. Should be a decimal value between -180 and 180.

    • longitude is the longitude coordinate of the point. Should be a decimal value between -90 and 90.

    • group is an optional field which allows you to group certain points together.

  • Your CSV must contain a header indicating the ordering of your fields.

An example CSV might look something like the below:

id,longitude,latitude,group
Point 1,3.0505242,39.2707224,SOUTH DISTRICT
Point 2,3.0807366,39.2866678,SOUTH DISTRICT
Point 3,3.0520286,39.3742523,NORTH DISTRICT
Point 4,3.0678215,39.3787639,NORTH DISTRICT

After successfully uploading your CSV it will be parsed and the interface will automatically draw your points onto the map.

Import coverage analysis

You may notice that a new window will be added to the bottom left of the screen. This is a live-updating metrics report which gives you details about your calculations, giving indications as to whether your points are covered or not.

If you next click on the map and run through a calculation you should see the points being coloured based on the signal strength but also the metrics report should update automatically when new calculations cover points.

Single calculation

As you add new calculations this will update the metrics report showing you how much coverage you have in total. Each group as defined in your CSV will also be calculated based on its coverage.

Multiple calculations

As you do multiple calculations this will build up your available layers on the map. As you check/uncheck them it will automatically update your metrics report in the bottom left of the interface. This is useful for seeing the effect removing a single layer has on an overall network.

In the “Coverage Metrics” window you can click on the “Download Coverage Metrics Report” icon Download Coverage Metrics Report icon to obtain a report from your calculations. This is a txt file with information:

0406125651_My_Site
Import Survey Data

You can upload a CSV with field measurements for easy modelling calibration. This was developed with CSV output from Cellmapper which is recommended for cellular surveys.

For basic ‘measurements’ your CSV should follow the following rules:

  • The following fields are accepted:

    • latitude is the latitude coordinate of the point. Should be a decimal value between -180 and 180.

    • longitude is the longitude coordinate of the point. Should be a decimal value between -90 and 90.

    • rssi is the measured signal strength in dBm. For cellular this needs to be received power not RSRP etc

  • Your CSV must contain a header indicating the ordering of your fields.

An example CSV might look something like the below:

longitude,latitude,rssi
3.0505242,39.2707224,-77
3.0807366,39.2866678,-82
3.0520286,39.3742523,-83
3.0678215,39.3787639,-88

Your CSV will be automatically validated when you upload it, if there are any errors then this will be displayed in the dialog window.

After successfully uploading your CSV it will be parsed and the interface will automatically draw your points onto the map and compute the delta between any visible layer upon it.

You may notice that a new window will be added to the bottom left of the screen. This is a live-updating metrics report which gives you details about the computed error. A good error value is less than 6dB. Anything greater than 9dB requires adjustments to your modelling parameters.

If you next click on the map and run through a calculation you should see the points being coloured based on the signal strength but also the metrics report should update automatically where new calculations cover points.

As you do multiple calculations this will build up your available layers on the map. As you check/uncheck them it will automatically update your metrics report. This is useful for comparing settings.

MANET Tool (A list of network nodes)

If you select “MANET Tool” from the “Purpose” dropdown then this can be used to import points for use with the MANET tool (GPU required). This is useful when you wish to use the MANET tool but don’t want to have to keep redrawing markers at the same locations if you want to test different profiles for example.

Please note that when you upload your file using “MANET Tool”, each point in your uploaded file will be applied with the same values that you currently have set for your settings.

After you submit your uploaded file a MANET calculation will be fired off immediately using your settings and preferences.

Below shows the result of a MANET calculation after being uploaded from a KML file:

Response from MANET tool

The above screenshot is taken from the following KML:

For more information please consult the section relating to the MANET planning tool.

Best Site Analysis (An area for analysis)

If you select “Best Site Analysis” from the “Purpose” dropdown then this is used to upload a polygon of a boundary which is used with the best site analysis functionality. This is useful if you are working with very specific boundaries and don’t wish to keep redrawing the area. Instead you can upload your file and have the calculation repeated with the same values every time.

Upon successful upload of your boundary the best site analysis tool will be immediately fired off using your current settings.

Best site analysis successful calculation

For more information please consult the section relating to the best site analysis planning tool.

Automatic processing (Process a spreadsheet)

If you select “Automatic processing” from the “Purpose” dropdown then this will enable you to upload a simple CSV spreadsheet describing the sites in your network. This uses a subset of what is available in the API and all other settings will be set in your form at the point of upload eg. Radius and Resolution.

This is a simplified way to use the API via the user interface which has limited options compared to the full examples documented on GitHub

  • cloudrf.py is the Python base class if you wanted to extend your own requests and is based on the Python script available on GitHub.

My obstacles

Custom obstacles or Clutter can be defined as anything which could impede a signal’s path.

For RF planning purposes, the clutter can predominantly be trees and buildings. As the trees and the buildings vary greatly in density, we have included their different types.

The global clutter data for telecommunications planning is very expensive, and often outdated, despite their price. We have developed a much more flexible way of self-generating accurate clutter models.

Whether you need to define one big building which is being planned for construction or you need to upload a plan for an entire city - we support both DIY (Do It Yourself) and BYO (Bring Your Own) clutter.

  • DIY Clutter - You can draw your own clutter directly in the Cloud-RF interface to meet your requirements, defining the Type of the clutter.

  • BYO Clutter - You can upload your own KML / GeoJSON file directly.

DIY Clutter

DIY clutter allows you to draw and build your clutter directly in the Cloud-RF interface to meet your requirements.

  • Click on the Draw obstacles button Draw obstacle icon icon to draw custom clutter located at the bottom-left of the interface.

  • The Custom Clutter Dialog box will appear.

    Custom clutter dialog box

For information regarding Drawing Clutter, refer to the Drawing a Polygon section.

The dialog box is split into several parts.

  • Type determines the type of the material under which you clutter will be allocated. This is for DIY clutter. The value set here will be taken based upon your clutter profile which you select in the “Clutter” menu from the “Profile” dropdown on the input menu on the left of the interface. This is used to determine the height and attenuation of the clutter.

    Input menu "Clutter" section

  • The “Browse”/”File” button is used to submit KML or GeoJSON files for BYO clutter.

  • The upload button is used to send your clutter to the Cloud-RF service to handle your clutter. Clutter upload icons

  • The checkbox at the bottom for “Confirm deletion on every right click” is a safety catch as you may have multiple clutter on your profile - rather than having to confirm deletion of every one you might decide to disable this checkbox at which point right-clicking on a clutter will instantly delete it without any confirmation.

Drawing Custom Clutter

To define a clutter polygon:

  • Click on the Draw Obstacles Draw area icon icon located at the bottom-left of the interface.

  • Left-Click on the map to draw the edges of the polygon as per your requirement.

You can also delete all clutter in your profile by opening the clutter manager and pressing the “Delete my obstacles” button.

LiDAR

LiDAR data is the highest accuracy data available and is available for many cities at 2m resolution.

Check the coverage map to see if you are covered.

It’s a surface raster, hence, it is not permeable like the custom clutter but is very useful for line of sight analysis as even trees and bushes are represented.
