  • Publication number: 20090191880
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a radio frequency planning tool using high resolution ribbon maps to verify a line of sight condition of fixed radio links for designing a fixed radio network. A method includes generating a radio link between a transmitter and a receiver using a respective generated low resolution map, and acquiring a high resolution ribbon map for the identified radio link between the transmitter and each of the at least one receiver. The method also includes verifying a line of sight condition for each identified radio link using a respective high resolution ribbon map, determining if the line of sight condition for each identified radio link is satisfied, and concluding a design of a fixed radio network between the transmitter and each of the at least one receiver when the line of sight condition is satisfied for each desired radio link, or no LOS link can be found for some sites.
