3) Interference must be considered in site selection. New site should avoid known interference, unless the

interference is controlable

3.4 Site Survey Guide

Site survey mainly include location selection and detail site study

Site Selection

The site survey engineer should be experienced with good knowledge of microwave propagation,

antenna ,feeder, MSR products and experiences in wireless network deployment.

Site location selection is the most important step of site survey. MESH network design engineer will do on

site analysis of target area and recording all required site data, the site data includes terrain information,

end-user distribution and their behavior, radio environment and the coverage target of MESH networks.

Power availability, line access availability , permit of antenna installation are mandatory aspects to be

considered in site survey. It is suggested to hunt more locations than actual needs that back-up sites can be

used if the availability of some sites changed. Actual measuremet is suggested done for complex radio

environment. The ideal site should meet following requirement:

 minimum obstacles to the target coverage area from the antenna.

 Availability of power

 Availability of Line access for Gateway

 Permit of antenna installation and MSR2000 mounting.

Detailed site study

Site survey engineer should conduct detail measurements according to the plan, the measurements and

records include site location information, antenna selection, MSR2000 mounting position etc. Site survey

report is suugested to prepared after all site survey works finished.

¾ Eye measurement: building information, terrain information

Eye measurement is to verify there are any obstacle and reflection in wave propagation

environment and terrain informing, such as building, trees, etc.

¾ Spectrum measurement (optional): radio environment

Spectrum measurement is to get familiar with radio environment in the target coverage area

and antennas. The interference could from Wi-Fi APs and other systems.

¾ Site investgation: the availabity of power, installation of antenna and MSR2000.
