  • Patent number: 10645595
    Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium provide for receive line-of-site (LoS) information obtained by a camera, wherein the LoS information identifies an LoS from a radio site to a potential radio signal receiver location; estimate a signal strength value, for a signal from the radio site, at the potential radio signal receiver location; identify a first type of obstruction in the LoS, wherein a signal loss associated with the first type of obstruction varies by a time of year; modify the estimated signal strength value using a nominal signal loss value for the first type of obstruction, wherein the nominal signal loss value is associated with a different time of year than the time of year in which the LoS information is obtained; and determine whether to qualify the potential radio signal receiver location for an equipment installation for the wireless service based on a threshold signal value.

  • Patent number: 10405196
    Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium provide for receiving, via a communication interface, line-of-site (LoS) information from a camera located at a radio site in a vicinity of a structure; identifying, using the LoS information, a first potential user location from a plurality of potential user locations within the structure; calculating, using the LoS information, a first signal strength value at the structure's exterior corresponding to an LoS signal path that extends, without obstruction, from the radio site to the first potential user location; determining that the first signal strength value exceeds a threshold signal value associated with a wireless service; and qualifying, responsive to the determination that the first signal strength value exceeds the threshold signal value, the first potential user location for an equipment installation for the wireless service at the structure's exterior.
