ASSET Propagation Model
Advanced 3D ray tracing for optimal network performance in complex urban areas.
Designing radio networks in urban settings is incredibly challenging – especially if you don’t have the latest tools.
The ASSET Propagation Model measures how radio signals bounce off structures – providing the most accurate network coverage information available at both the micro and macrocell layers. Its 3-D propagation and path loss modelling provides the accuracy today’s operators need for ensuring seamless network coverage at the lowest cost.
Key benefits
Enhanced 3D Ray Tracing
3D ray tracing analyzes network performance in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions utilizing state-of-the-art, Unified Theory of Diffraction. Multipath ray tracing data is available for each location.
Extended Terrain Morphology Detection
Highly accurate terrain modelling with hundreds of morphology classes. More morphologies equals greater
accuracy and better results.
User-Configurable Vegetation Modeling
The ASSET Propagation Model provides ‘tunable’ exponential vegetation loss modeling, with International Telecommunication Union (ITU) defaults included.
Detailed Reflection Modelling
Each wall of a building is unique. Go beyond generic reflection modelling to accommodate individual
windows, doors, and unusual façades. You can even account for wall permeability, reflectivity, and roughness.
Diffraction Modelling for Horizontal and Vertical Planes
Different configuration parameters for H and V planes helps improve network performance.
Improved Digital Twin Modelling with New Automated Model Tuning
Proper planning helps reduce costly mistakes and delays – and highly accurate digital twin modelling helps
ensure 5G design success. The ASSET Propagation Model has a standard deviation of error that is much lower than the industry average.
