Descrição
The planning of broadband access network topologies poses several challenges, as different access technologies may have different bandwidth, robustness, and installation cost requirements, which should be jointly considered in the conception of the overall network topology, to properly match the end users requirements. This paper addresses the planning of wireless networks using IEEE 802.16, for a set of different user profiles, different services and requirements, and different scenarios (residential, business, mixed) with different terrains. An application has been developed to design and plan IEEE 802.16 wireless networks. The results show that there are several possibilities of solutions to satisfy the needs of specific scenarios, whether the desired solution should have better coverage area or better capacity. The planning tool enables the user to change the solution to better fit for the deployment needs.
