Descripción
Accurate radio surveys are essential for planning, optimizing, and troubleshooting wireless
networks. This course introduces the tools and techniques used in real-world survey
scenarios, helping you understand how measurements are captured and analysed for
reliable coverage.
In this course, you’ll start with practical demonstrations of survey tools, including drive
survey systems, R&S ROMES drive test software, and R&S TSMA radio scanners. You’ll
learn how measurements are recorded outdoors and indoors, and explore advanced
features such as automatic cell detection (ACD), cellular coverage surveys, and base
station analysis. The course also covers cell position estimation, handover analysis, and
Wi-Fi coverage surveys, giving you a comprehensive view of survey applications.
Next, you’ll gain guidance for conducting radio network surveys, including best practices for
personal safety, spot/location surveys, route profiling, and indoor coverage assessments.
You’ll learn how to choose between idle mode and connected mode measurements, and
how to perform specialized surveys such as network profiling and aeronautical surveys.
Designed for professionals in telecoms and wireless engineering, this course provides a
practical, hands-on introduction to radio survey tools and techniques - ideal for anyone
seeking to understand how coverage data is collected and used to optimize network
performance.
