  • Patent number: 11283534
    Abstract: The interference power estimation apparatus 1 calculates an inter-station vector from an interfering station over a sphere to an interfered station installed in the sphere based on a position of each station. In a case where a line segment connecting the position of the interfered station and the position of the interfering station does not intersect with the sphere, an angle between an antenna direction vector representing a direction of an antenna from the position of the interfered station and the inter-station vector is derived, and a sum of an antenna directivity attenuation amount obtained based on the angle and propagation losses calculated based on a distance between the interfered station and the interfering station is calculated.

  • Publication number: 20220078630
    Abstract: A station placement design method includes: extracting candidates for an installation location of a wireless base station from point group data in accordance with designated conditions for an installation location of a wireless base station; determining presence/absence of visibility between a plurality of designated wireless terminal stations and the candidates for an installation location of a wireless base station based on the point group data and generating a first list including information in which the candidates for an installation location of a wireless base station and wireless terminal stations determined to have presence of visibility for the candidates for an installation location of a wireless base station are associated with each other; generating a second list including information representing combinations of the candidates for an installation location of a wireless base station that enable all of the plurality of designated wireless terminal stations to be accommodated based on the first list

  • Publication number: 20220070683
    Abstract: An installation candidate presentation device extracts, for each of one or more installation candidates that are candidates for an installation place of a first wireless device, by using planar map data indicating a planar map of a region including the installation candidates, and a target building at which second wireless devices are to be installed, respectively, an outline range of the building, which is visible from the installation candidate. The installation candidate presentation device calculates, for each installation candidate, by using three-dimensional map data indicating a three-dimensional map obtained by measuring the same region as the planar map data, area of part of a wall surface corresponding to the extracted outline range, the part being visible from the installation candidate, and calculates a total of the area calculated for the building in the region. The installation candidate presentation device presents an installation candidate selected based on the calculated total.

  • Publication number: 20220060906
    Abstract: Point cloud data between a base station device and a terminal station device is acquired as a point cloud data group. A radius of a first Fresnel zone defined by the base station device and the terminal station device at each position where the point cloud data group is acquired is calculated. A region specified by the radius at each position where the point cloud data group is acquired is scanned to detect the point cloud data, and a non-line-of-sight region is extracted. A ratio of a total area of all the extracted non-line-of-sight regions to an area of a region constructed by the first Fresnel zone is calculated. A received power is estimated based on the calculated ratio between the areas. Whether or not there is a line of sight between the base station device and the terminal station device is determined based on the received power.

  • Publication number: 20220035043
    Abstract: A projection unit (12) of an interference power estimation device (1) projects an orbit of a satellite onto a map representing a ground surface. A range acquisition unit (13) determines a plurality of ranges on the map so that the projected orbit is included in the ranges. An altitude calculation unit (14) calculates an altitude of the orbit of the satellite in each of the ranges. A range interference calculation unit (16) calculates, for each of the ranges, an interference power between the satellite at a position determined by a latitude and a longitude of the range and the altitude calculated for the range and a radio station installed on the ground surface. An estimation result calculation unit (17) selects, as an estimation result, a maximum value among the interference powers calculated for each of the ranges.
