Enter transmit power, antenna gain, height, environment and indoor penetration. The calculator computes the maximum allowed path loss for DL and UL, applies a propagation model and returns the limiting radius and the number of 3-sector sites needed.
What it does
- DL budget from RS / SSB EPRE and the cell-edge RSRP target
- UL budget from UE power, PRB allocation, noise figure and required SINR
- Okumura-Hata, COST-231 Hata and 3GPP TR 38.901 UMa models, 4 environments
- Penetration (car / indoor / deep indoor) and shadowing margins
- Inter-site distance, area per 3-sector site and number of sites for a target area
How it works
FAQ
Is my data uploaded to a server?
No. Files are processed in your browser (or by the optional helper app on your own computer). Nothing is stored on our servers.
Do I need to install anything?
No – it is a web app. You can optionally install it as a desktop app from the browser. A small helper app is only needed for tools that must reach your network (ping, port check, auto login).
Is it really free?
Yes – this tool is free to use without an account.
