Determining installation height for subscriber modules in wireless networks
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11979850B2) outlines a method and system for determining the optimal installation height for subscriber modules in a wireless network. The system involves two computing devices, with one accessing elevation data for a given geographical area and processing it to generate preferred height data for subscriber modules. This data is then sent to the other computing device for further processing and display of the preferred height information based on location. The method includes iterative processes to calculate angles of inclination and ensure wireless visibility between the subscriber module and the access point.
Furthermore, the system allows for the determination of preferred locations for access points to receive radio links from multiple subscriber modules within a specific geographical area. By accessing elevation data and location information for each subscriber module, the system processes this data to generate a wireless visibility data file indicating the visibility of subscriber modules by an access point at various locations. The method involves calculating direct view angles in elevation, considering obstructions, and utilizing Fresnel zones to determine wireless visibility. The system provides output data indicating the number of visible subscriber modules based on the location of the access point, enhancing network optimization and performance.
