Drive Test Management

Table
List of all the measurement points with their attributes and additional information

Standard content management and tools (filters, copy-paste, etc...)

Drive Test Management

Management of Measurement Path Points
Option of extracting a field related to a
specific transmitter along a path

Creation of any prediction on the

transmitters measured along the path

Option of creating as many CW measurement

paths as the number of involved transmitters
along the path. These data can be used to
calibrate any propagation model

Drive Test Management

Possibility to save the
current filter settings
in a configuration file

Management of Measurement Path Points

Filter per type(s)

of clutter

Advanced filter on
additional survey
data

Permanent
deletion of out-offilter points

Drive Test Management

Management of Measurement Path Points

Using the Atoll display dialog, you can display the

points according to any data contained in the
measurement table

Drive Test Management

Management of Measurement Path Points

List of existing
predictions in the
measurement table

Option of preparing additional prediction

studies along the path using the existing
transmitter parameters (antennas, propagation
models, etc)
