Possiblity of wireless Internet networks planing

Consultants intelligent, Spanish company dedicated to developing products and services for the design, deployment and optimization of wireless networks, just put on the market Xiri Online, the first professional tool for radio network planning on the Internet. With this application, users can design their networks without having digital mapping tools or their own, under a model of "pay per use". By Joshua Lopez Chaves Scientific Trends.

We're all used to use wireless networks in our daily lives to listen to radio, watch TV, talk on the phone or connect wirelessly to the Internet or other devices inside and outside the home.

In many cases, the ease with which you can access these services makes us forget the existence of an infrastructure of transmitters, base stations, antennas, etc.. that is actually providing the service and requires detailed planning to offer coverage to get users where they demand it.

The design of telecommunications networks is usually done by professional tools for radio planning.

The high cost of these tools, and digital mapping needed to simulate the scenarios where deployed networks historically have provided a barrier to employment in small projects. The emergence of new Web tools with a model of "pay per use" is to avoid this pitfall.
It is possible to plan wireless Internet radio planning tools

Radio planning tools allow for theoretical simulations of signal propagation in the vicinity of the transmitting stations.

With this type of application is evaluated network coverage, capacity and behavior for possible interference. Thus, one can perform a network design, on a virtual stage, ensuring the proper conduct of this once deployed.

Xiri Online is a generic radio planning tool that can be applied to the design of virtually all wireless technologies: public mobile communications (GSM, DCS, UMTS, LTE, ...), broadcasting (TV, DVB-T, FM, DAB, DVB-H, ...), professional mobile communications systems (PMR, TETRA, ...), radio (PDH, SDH ,..), broadband access (LMDS, WiMAX, WiFi, ...).

Potential applications are unlimited as long as they have specific parameters for each technology and algorithms and appropriate calculation methods applied in each.

Precision of results

The accuracy of the results obtained from these simulations depends largely on the quality of digital map representing the real environment in which networks are deployed and the application of appropriate calculation methods for modeling the propagation behavior signal in that environment.

Xiri Online includes the most common methods of calculation and international recognition. Moreover, the application proposes the appropriate default parameters in each case, the simulation of networks of any technology is extremely simple, even for non-experts in radio frequency.

With regard to mapping, the application uses the familiar GoogleMaps viewfinder which makes it possible to work around the world. Incorporating the other hand, 3D terrain models that simulate the terrain of the stage where networks will be deployed, also with global coverage for both rural and urban environments.

The makers of this tool is cutting deals with various mapping providers worldwide to make 3D models available in many cities. The consumer payment option offered Xiri Online is an exciting alternative access to this mapping in detail, since their cost is generally very high.


Free access for all

Xiri Online provides access to the application and can perform calculations at low resolution so completely free. You only pay when you want to perform calculations with a professional quality (high resolution) which also gives you the right to share the results with non-users or downloaded to your local machine.
