Desktop Wireless Design Merged With ArcView and ArcView Business Analyst
Track: Telecommunications
Author(s): Joseph Kelly

Desktop wireless RF design tools such as, EDX Signal Pro 5.x, are used to design networks and determine coverage areas for specific frequencies and power levels. The ability to export modeled coverage areas as a shapefile allows them to be imported into Esri products, such as ArcView 8.x or ArcView 3.x and the Business Analyst extension. Those interested in matching marketing and sales efforts in correlation with potential geographic coverage areas now have the means to marry wireless design with wireless sales and marketing. ArcView Business Analyst, an extension of ArcView 8.x, and associated data provide mapping, demographic, and geocoding capabilities which can be utilized to analyze potential customers and obtain addresses for marketing and sales correspondence. ArcView 8.x or ArcView 3.x can be used to produce maps for publishing

propagation models and expected geographic coverage.
