IBS/DAS continued..

This being holiday season, I am going to keep the post simple and short.
In this post I intend to cover the indoor radio planning procedure.
The entire process can be divided into several stages.

1. Getting accurate information.  It is essential to get accurate information about the type and number of users. Floor-plans, architectural details of the site , existing systems etc.

2. The Site survey : Some people say that it is better to do a site survey even before coming up with the preliminary design, as far as I am concerned , it would be better to come up with the preliminary design and then go ahead with the site survey so that it would be easier to relate the tool output and the data collected on the field.

3. The design will be modified after the first site visit. It is beneficial to be as accurate as possible so it would be easier to optimize/tune the system once it is installed.


4. Optimize the system : It would be impressive to meet all the required KPIs on the first go and if one can not achieve that, there is always scope for optimization.
