Abstract:
1. A method for visual representation of RF propagation of at least one radio cell on a floor plan of a building, the method comprising: displaying a digital image of the floor plan on a display of a computer device; defining at least one two-dimensional density zone on the floor plan via a user interface of the computing device; selecting via the user interface of the computing device a RF propagation calculation strategy, the selected RF propagation calculation strategy comprising a specific algorithm for calculating RF propagation for each of the at least one radio cell, the specific algorithm determining an amount of calculation performed by a processing unit of the computing device; configuring the at least one radio cell via the user interface of the computing device; positioning the at least one radio cell over the digital image of the floor plan displayed on the display of the computing device via the user interface of the computing device; calculating by the processing unit the RF propagation for each of the at least one radio cell based on: configuration of the radio cell, the selected propagation calculation strategy and position of the radio cell with respect to the at least one two-dimensional density zone; adjusting by the processing unit of the computing device the calculated RF propagation for each of the at least one radio cell as a function of a scale of the floor plan; generating by the processing unit the visual representation of the adjusted RF propagation for each of the at least one radio cell; and displaying by the processing unit on the display of the computing device the visual representation of adjusted RF propagation for each of the at least one radio cell over the image of the floor plan.
