Planet System of radio planning and optimization of communication networks

Planet (before Mentum Planet) is the universal solution for radio planning and optimization of any wireless networks of communication. This system will find application for most of mobile operators and equipment manufacturers. Planet is intended for planning of a mobile network, optimization of the existing communication networks and performance management. Also the complex allows to perform 3D - modeling of a coverage, design of small cells and heterogeneous networks (HetNet).

The companies can use Planet at any stage of lifecycle of a mobile network for strategic planning and design, network management, the re-planning and optimization necessary in case of use of the equipment of different suppliers and application of different technologies.

Planet provides an information access about a configuration, parameters and network performance and also visualizes these geolocations of calls in real time. A system keeps account and provides technical specialists with data on a current status of a mobile network, information on change of requirements in traffic and the arising problems. It allows to reduce time for detection of areas with a poor performance and facilitates planning process and optimization.

Possibilities of a complex allow mobile operators to increase efficiency of design of a mobile network and to accelerate process of transition to networks of the next generation. As a result of Planet reduces your charges of network infrastructure.

2015: Planet 6.1

Planet of version 6.1 will find application for all mobile operators as supports the majority of wireless standards among which there is GSM, GPRS, EDGE, WCDMA, HSPA, HSPA+, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, LTE (TDD and FDD), LTE Advanced and also 5G network.

Thanks to a possibility of planning of network in real time a system allows to obtain quickly information on a configuration of network, the actual loading and performance. On the basis of these data departments of optimization of network can draw a conclusion on problem sections or components of network to eliminate them without attraction of the additional capital investments.

Planet 6.1 offers a range of the functions necessary for deployment of small cells and heterogeneous networks HetNet allows to make strategic planning and assessment of an investment payback (ROI). Creation at the same time of several scenarios of development of a mobile network allows operators to compare them and to select the most optimal.

Support of the 64-bit version of a geographic information system of MapInfo Pro 16 became one of the main innovations of Planet 6.1. The improved designer of reports, the increased performance of transactions with tables and graphic objects and also support of touch screens and gestures became feature of new release of GIS.

Now the possibility of interface to VistaNEO and other products InfoVista (on the basis of algorithms of OSS), 3D is available - the traffic geolocation, is implemented support of the identifier IMSI in LTE and transit nodes of LTE. Also among useful functions of a system there is an analysis of the PCI parameters (Physical Cell Identifier) and the static mode in the instrument of dialogue processing.

The software package for radio planning and optimization of Planet 6.1 will provide to the user high performance for all lifecycle of network.

2015: Planet 6.0

Version of Planet 6.0. differs in ergonomics. Now all tools are logically grouped and are in a tape over the main working windows. All necessary tools can be located on a shortcut bar.

In the 6th version of Planet the 64-bit version of MapInfo Pro 15.2 is supported. Feature of this release is support of touch screens and gestures, the advanced designer of reports, the increased performance of transactions with tables and graphic objects.

In this version of Planet the possibility of interface to VistaNEO is available now (on the basis of algorithms of OSS), the 3D geolocation of traffic, is implemented support of the identifier IMSI in LTE and transit nodes of LTE. Also among useful functions there will be an analysis of the PCI parameters (Physical Cell Identifier) and the static mode in the instrument of dialogue processing.

Advanced system of modeling of network of antennas

Planet offers the unique tool modeling of network of antennas which can be selected on the Internet or to find in the integrated library. Modeling of all antenna system is performed in one file (.pafx file). Support of multi-band antennas. eTilt, eBeamwidth and eAzimuth. Support of advanced antenna systems. Support of a rating of Tx/Rx and MIMO. Modeling of SMART of antennas: beam-forming and multidipole antennas. Physical characteristics of the antenna. Three-dimensional modeling of antennas.

Creation of cards of traffic

Cards of traffic provide a basis for modern radio planning, showing places of concentration of load of network. The major data for job evaluation of network under loading. Cards of traffic can be based on forecasts or statistics. Use of different traffic models for different scenarios of development of network or for different services is possible. Detailed modeling of subscribers. Defines an order of access for subscribers to network, and models of their behavior (service, a priority, the equipment).

Built-in Tabular Editor

The built-in editor of network information equipped with the functionality similar to Excel. Provides mass editing data, a copying/insert in/from Excel. Changes parameters of the planned network on the fly, checking them for existence of errors. There is no more need to prepare network data for the project in Excel.

Analysis of raster data

The integrated module Vertical Mapper for management of raster information. Standard and open raster format. Flexible opportunities for display. Possibility of editing cards. Opportunities for processing of raster information (addition, etc.).

The integrated Bing Maps and Open Street Maps cards

Completely integrated functional module of upload of Internet cards. Visualization of any settlement layer of Planet on a substrate from high-precision cartographic information on urban development is provided. There is a possibility of editing objects directly from Bing Maps Viewer.

Analysis of network data

Statistics on each sector from external sources can be loaded into Planet. Several data sets can be tied to each project of network (for example, key indicators or statistics for the different temporary periods). External data can be reflected in a graphic type, are included in statistics, or to be used as the basis for automatic filtering. Communication between network dismissed can be provided and.
