How are fixed wireless broadband service areas processed?
For fixed wireless providers that do not have their footprint in a spatial format to provide to Connected Nation and its subsidiaries, information is collected on the wireless network and the individual towers to create wireless propagations. Information such as tower location, tower height, transmit frequency, azimuth, transmit antenna gain, foliage cover, etc. are collected from providers to serve as inputs into a propagation model. The resulting product depicts a graphical illustration of the theoretical propagation characteristics of a selected frequency range based on the defined variables.
