6 Multi-cell Setup & Management
This chapter seeks to describe how to install, add and synchronize one or multiple base stations to the
network. There are two main procedures involved:
1) Proper placement of the base stations (which is called network dimensioning). The present chapter
does not address this issue. Refer to Chapter 12 for details.
2) Creating and adding base station profiles to the network via the SME Configuration Tool (to form a
multi-cell system).
This chapter describes the second procedure.
