Abstract
A method for engineering management and planning for the design of a communications network in three-dimensions (70) which combines computerized organization, database fusion, and site-specific communication system performance prediction models (70, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130). Various metrics are used to optimise the layout, placement and design of the communications network (90, 130).
