Aster Propagation Model and its mmWave Capabilities Webinar
Atoll, Forsk's leading radio planning and optimisation software, combines advanced urban propagation modelling with live measurements to help designing and continuously improving multi-technology mobile networks.
The propagation modelling has always been a fundamental instrument to study and design a mobile network. Forsk offers an extensive propagation model library including empirical as well as deterministic propagation models. Aster propagation model is a highly accurate performance oriented ray-tracing propagation model.
To meet the future capacity demand, the 5G networks will be operating in frequency bands above 6 GHz. Aster propagation model has evolved to integrated the modelling of frequencies above 6 GHz, notably the mmWave.
In this webinar, we are presenting Aster propagation model, its general features and mmWave capabilities.
During the webinar, the following topics are covered:
Aster Propagation Model General Description
Aster mmWave – new phenomenon and the modelling approach
Aster Propagation Model Features
Heterogenous Multi-resolution Environments
Aster’s capabilities in aggregating various environments using multi-resolution multi-types geo data.
Propagation Classes
Propagation classes at the core of the propagation modelling
Model calibration
Review of platform, Measurements modules and Aster calibration features
Aster Calculation Performance
General approach to the memory management and on the fly data processing to achieve very fast calculations using ray-tracing features
Semi-deterministic 3GPP 38.900 Propagation Model
Overview of the 3GPP defined propagation model for mmWave frequency bands
The covered topics are supported by the following use-cases:
- Small cell deployment propagation modelling
- Macro layer densification example
- 5G fixed wireless deployment example
In addition to the main features we are presenting the unique functionalities that make Aster a preferred choice for an efficient deployment of small cells, macro and mini sites in various dense urban, urban and rural environments.
