Introduction:
If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.
.. Some one.
The overall objective of the planning process is to design a cost-effective design of a good quality cellular network.
A good plan should address the following issues:
In general the planning process starts with the inputs from the customer. The customer inputs include customer
requirements, business plans, system characteristics, and any other constraints.
After the planned system is implemented, the assumptions made during the planning process need to be validated and
corrected wherever necessary through an OPTIMISATION process.
We can summarize the whole planning process under 4 broad headings:
1.
2.
3.
4.
CAPACITY PLANNING
COVERAGE PLANNING
PARAMETER PLANNING
OPTIMIZATION.
The figure opposite illustrates the planning process. The figure on the next page outlines the optimization process.
