Abstract: A microwave path search tool for finding radio path trails between a source site at a first geographic location and a target site at a second geographic location, wherein radio paths constituting a radio path trail meet certain radio link design goals subject to certain design constraints. The tool receives information relating to the source and target sites and sites within a buffer region around the source and target sites. The tool also receives path profile computation information such as data representing the terrain and clutter in the buffer region. The tool uses this information to analyze potential radio paths and identify radio paths forming a radio link between the source and target sites that best meets the radio link design goals. The tool can also perform pre-run analysis and use incrementally increasing linear or segmented expansions of search areas within the buffer region to facilitate the radio path search.

Abstract: A radio signal path design tool that provides for a visual depiction of the viability of alternative antenna locations around proposed fixed antenna sites. The design tool computes a radio link path profile at the proposed antenna sites while simultaneously displaying alternative locations around the fixed antenna sites that would potentially achieve the radio link design goals. In some embodiments, the alternative antenna locations are represented as an array of points, arranged in a grid pattern, surrounding the proposed antenna sites. The path design tool may change each displayed point so that the point visually reflects the extent to which the corresponding location satisfies the radio link design goals. By providing a robust visualization, the design tool allows for a ready assessment of alternative radio link paths adjacent to the proposed link path, which allows for flexibility in deploying radio antennas.

Abstract: A radio signal path design tool that allows radio link propagation path profiling or path-loss measurement where the link partner antenna towers are located in a proposed fixed location on the earth's surface, but are extendable a certain distance in any direction from the fixed location. The design tool can be used to compute a radio link path profile at the proposed tower location, while still correctly representing terrain variations in a variable path extension distance on either side of the radio link. To correctly represent terrain variations across the depicted portion of the earth's surface, the tool computes and applies a modified earth-bulge factor or k-factor. The variable extension distance on either side of the radio link allows for latitudinal and/or longitudinal variations in antenna tower placement, greatly facilitating the identification of appropriate positions of antenna towers during the wireless link design phase.
