    摘要: Systems and methods are described for automated sector creation in greenfield physical radiofrequency (RF) communication network infrastructures. For example, a network operator is granted licenses to use multiple spectrum blocks in multiple geographic regions for which the network operator does not currently have physical infrastructure. An RF network design defines a number of template antennas located at template site locations to meet a link budget over a target coverage area. For each template site location, embodiments can automatically compute sectors based on the associated template antennas and local spectrum licensing information. The computed sectors can effectively define a physical network deployment, including locations and configurations for sector antennas, by which the network operator can provide a desired quality of coverage to subscribers in the target coverage area.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described for automated detection of border conflicts in physical radiofrequency (RF) communication network infrastructures. For example, proposed sector antennas in a greenfield physical network deployment may be licensed to radiate in certain spectrum blocks in the mapped licensed geographic regions (mLGR) where they are located, but the licenses may not permit radiated power in those spectrum blocks to cross into adjacent mLGRs. Embodiments compute radiation contours for the sector antennas indicating estimated local power levels computed based on antenna characteristics of the sector antennas and propagation model data that defines geographic morphologies for the mLGRs. The radiation contours are analyzed to detect any border conflict conditions where the estimated local power levels exceed defined threshold radiation levels in unlicensed regions. A culprit set of the sector antennas can be output to indicate those responsible for detected border conflict conditions.
