The Path Profile and RF Propagation Tool bring experience gained in our Radio Propagation Simulator (ComSim) and Mission Planning Aid (Phoenix) to the mobile market.
Overview
Starting with a map-based interface, radio locations are entered and a path profile between two points can then be shown. Radio parameters can then be configured and the link margin calculated to indicate the expected susses of communication.
