A system overview of U-Net
Be a professional radio network design tool for 3G, completely
support GSM/TDMA,GPRS-EDGE, cdmaOne,W-CDMA / UMTS and
CDMA 2000/1x RTT/EVDO
Realize mobility of planning design, supporting a wide range of
project applications, single-processor configurations, and
Enterprise server-based network configurations. The single-
processor version does not requiring connecting external
database and users can still share engineering data.
Open, expandable platform
Friendly interface and be easy to install, operate, tune models
and generate reports
Modules in U-Net
Modular structure
Modular including :the basic core module, 3G module, measurement
module, AFP (Automatic frequency planning) module and microwave
module
Select different modules based on demands
Requirement of U-Net
Software and hardware requirements for U-Net:
U-Net work station
PC Pentium 3 processor or better.
More than 256 MB memory. 512 MB memory is suggested.
Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000 Professional/Windows XP
U-Net single-processor version neednt external database
Multi-user configurations supports the following database
management systems (unsuitable for single user)
Microsoft Access 97/2000
Microsoft SQL Server 7.0
Oracle v8.1.7 or higher
Sybase Adaptive Server V 11.5
World coordinates system database
- Support 1000+ kinds coordinates
- New coordinates system can be easily added in

Integrated with other GIS tool, for
example, MapInfo, and Arcview
- Import: Geographical data, traffic/population
density map
- Export: Coverage prediction map, vector data
and polygon
GIS Functions
GIS Functions

Support high-resolution map
Supported resolutions up to 1-metre precision
Support various map types
Digital Elevation Model (DEM)
Clutter data (type and height)
Three-dimensional building data (raster and vector)
Traffic data or population density data
Satellite and navigation map
U-Net Propagation Model
Industry standard propagation models
Okumura-Hata and Cost-Hata
Standard Propagation Model (SPM)
ITU 526-5 and ITU 370-7 propagation model
Longley-Rice and WLL propagation model

Advanced propagation calculation engine

Support third-party propagation models,
such as, Wavesight, Volcano, and Winpro.

U-Net Propagation Model
Dual-resolution pathloss matrix
Two pathloss matrices per transmitter
Propagation model, resolution and calculation
radius definable at pathloss matrix level
Benefits
Accuracy near transmitter (high resolution)
Calculation time and disk space optimization far
from transmitter (lower resolution)

Transmitter
Area calculated
using a macrocell
model
Area calculated
using a
microcell model
Measurement Module
Import of CW measurement data

Import and display CW data
Automatically correct the propagation model
according to CW measurement
Prediction/measurement comparison, analysis

Import of measurement data of drive test

Import, display and analyze testing mobile data
Playback on the map according to user-defined
routes
Analyze and display call events
Automatically correct the propagation model
according to drive test data
Prediction/measurement comparison, analysis
U-Net Propagation Model
CW Test sample
U-Net Propagation Model
Prediction map (using the tuned model)

deviation map (predicted value-test value)
Traffic map
Purpose of traffic map
Distribute some mobiles to digital map.

Ways to create a traffic map
Traffic raster maps based on environments
Traffic vector maps based on user profiles
Traffic map based on transmitters and services



Traffic raster maps based on environments
Each raster of the map is assigned an environment class
Traffic map is created based on combination of environment
class ,user profile, user density and mobility









Environment class A
User profile A1, mobility
type A1, density A1
User profile A2, mobility
type A2, density A2
...
Environment class B
User profile B1, mobility
type B1, density B1
User profile B2, mobility
type B2, density B2
...
Traffic vector maps based on user profiles
Each polygon or line contains a density of subscribers with
given user profile and mobility types
Polygon A
User profile A, mobility
type A, density A
Polygon B
User profile B, mobility
type B, density B
Traffic map based on transmitters and services
Live traffic spread over the service area of each
transmitter


Service zone of Tx A
For each defined service,
UL and DL throughputs
or
Number of UL and DL
active users
Service zone of Tx B
For each defined service,
UL and DL throughputs
or
Number of UL and DL
active users
