GSM/GPRS/EDGE (2G) Network Planning

Atoll provides comprehensive support for 2G planning, including voice and data services with GPRS and EDGE technologies:

  • Dual-band & HCS Design: Support for hierarchical cell structures and dual-band (e.g., 900/1800 MHz) configurations.
  • Frequency Hopping: Includes baseband and synthesised frequency hopping modelling to reduce co-channel interference.
  • Traffic & QoS Modelling: Supports AMR codec, timeslot allocation, and KPI-based traffic and quality analyses.
  • Automatic Frequency Planning (AFP): Interference-driven frequency channel allocation using imported or predicted matrices.
  • Live Data Integration: Imports GSM OSS data, UE traces, and MDT records to improve planning accuracy.


UMTS/HSPA (3G) Network Planning

The Atoll UMTS module delivers high-resolution 3G radio network design, supporting the entire UMTS evolution path:

  • Multi-Carrier Support: Full support for UMTS 900/1800/2100 MHz bands and dual-carrier HSPA.
  • Advanced Simulations: Monte Carlo simulator includes Ec/Io, RSCP, Eb/Nt, HSPA throughput, BLER, FER.
  • Service Modelling: Includes Release 99, HSPA+, VoIP, MIMO, and MBMS services.
  • Scrambling Code Planning: Manual and automatic allocation with interference analysis.
  • Integrated Live KPIs: Access to real-time KPIs, cell loads, handover stats, and neighbour planning using Live-UMTS.
