3.3 The principle of site survey

1) The principles of site survey of MESH networks are as: Mesh No obstacle in 60% of

the 1

fresnel zone. It will secure LOS in most areas and the coverage capability is

secured and the number of sites could be saved.

2) If no LOS secured, area in NLOS area could be covered as well, but the distance of

coverage and area of coverage are decreased, more sites are needed to provide

coverage for same area than LOS scenario.
