Planet EV GSM

---

Central to successful GSM design and optimization is the ability to model multiple technologies in a single project, and generation of high quality Interference Matrices (IM). Planet EV® provides an invaluable engineering foundation by enabling complex analysis through utilization of a comprehensive set of RF technologies, and unsurpassed holistic IM creation by using switch data, survey data, modeled coverage, and local knowledge. And the IM Manager provides the unique ability to merge IMs from multiple sources.

We also know the importance of the quality of geodata, and provide an extensive portfolio of in-house data and customization. Also supported is the use of multiple analysis scenarios through template-driven definition and storage of multiple scenarios, site tables, IMs, frequency plans, network configurations, and neighbor lists. The result of this steadfast commitment to core functionality is unmatched quality and accuracy that cascades to all downstream processes and applications.

Providing a strong engineering foundation is essential, but Planet EV doesn’t stop there. GSM standards continue to evolve with techniques such as frequency hopping (FH), downlink power control (DLPC), discontinuous transmission (DTX), adaptive multi-rate codecs (AMR), and a wide range of coding and modulation schemes for packet data. Planet EV reduces their complexity and impact to network performance by providing the highest accuracy in tuned predictive models. To fully optimize 2G and 3G networks, also available are a fully integrated Automatic Frequency Planning (AFP) extension, Urban Propagation Modeling, Performance Simulation and QoS Analysis, and Automatic Cell Planning (ACP).
