Re: [WISPA] Who is using Towercoverage.com ?

2014-04-10 Thread Brian Webster
Not really, Fresnel zone size is a function of frequency and distance between 
the two end points. The zone is football shaped with the widest part of the 
zone half way between the two end points. Antenna patterns have nothing to do 
with Fresnel zone size. 

 

Here is a Fresnel Zone size calculator with a good basic illustration:   
http://www.wirelessconnections.net/calcs/FresnelZone.asp

Yes, good way to look at it Brian, thanks.

 

So, is there a minimum height per frequency... say for 900Mhz "you should never 
shoot less then x feet', like less then 6'?

Fresnel zones are 180 degrees out of phase with even and odd numbered zones
(1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on). When you design a path you strive for an exposed
Fresnel zone of between 1 and .6 of the first zone, meaning you use the
ground/trees/obstructions to block the second and higher numbered zones
(this is only partially blocking the zone at the bottom). This minimizes the
cancelling effect giving an apparent gain.

A good visual example of this is to take a Flashlight such as a Mag light
with an adjustable beam and shine it against the wall to see the circular
pattern. Carefully look at that pattern and you will see light and dark
rings, these are your Fresnel zones and the lighter ones are the odd
numbered zones. The idea is you keep the first bright zone and eliminate the
rest. This is why going higher is not always better on a PTP path to get
more signal once you have cleared obstructions, going higher can expose more
even numbered Fresnel zones with the phase cancelling and a reduction in
signal due to same.

Can you explain this more?  This isn't what I was getting at... but since
you brought it up and it's been brought up before it might be worth
explaining in more detail.  I'm familiar with the concept but still can't
grasp why it works.

Ok,  Ya'll win.  The programmers are working on this as we speak.  Finding
the needed height for the desired signal is going to be automatic.  The site
is going to look at the desired signal.  If it is below what it should be
the it is going to start raising the antenna until the desired signal is
reached and return the estimated height needed for the link.  You won't need
to click to move it up.  This will be dynamic.

 

Still needs more testing before it goes live.

I'm having a hard time adjusting to this from Radio Mobile.  There's all the 
same "stupid" interface shortfalls, for example wanting to know what a 
customer's CPE would be without adding a site and putting them in the same

able to adjust the elevation on the fly.

I'm wondering if there's another list/forum for this service, too.  There's no

I'm not talking about customers plotting where their address is. What I'm 
getting at is if I have a customer called in, I'd like to just punch in the 
location and then see if they'll work at ground level or how high we need to 
get off the ground and see the signal change as I increment height.

The other thing that changing height can do is change the angle of 
reflected/refracted signals thus changing the amount of multi-path 
signal the receiver sees.

Re: [WISPA] Who is using Towercoverage.com ?

2014-04-10 Thread Brian Webster
Fresnel zones are 180 degrees out of phase with even and odd numbered zones
(1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on). When you design a path you strive for an exposed
Fresnel zone of between 1 and .6 of the first zone, meaning you use the
ground/trees/obstructions to block the second and higher numbered zones
(this is only partially blocking the zone at the bottom). This minimizes the
cancelling effect giving an apparent gain.

A good visual example of this is to take a Flashlight such as a Mag light
with an adjustable beam and shine it against the wall to see the circular
pattern. Carefully look at that pattern and you will see light and dark
rings, these are your Fresnel zones and the lighter ones are the odd
numbered zones. The idea is you keep the first bright zone and eliminate the
rest. This is why going higher is not always better on a PTP path to get
more signal once you have cleared obstructions, going higher can expose more
even numbered Fresnel zones with the phase cancelling and a reduction in
signal due to same.

Thank You,
Brian Webster

Re: [WISPA] Who is using Towercoverage.com ?

2014-04-10 Thread Darin Steffl
I've seen it before too. On the ground with a nanobridge 5 feet above the
ground with me holding it, I can get a -58 but go up 10 feet on the roof
and it's a -63 with same aiming and clear LOS. Bugs the heck out of me. But
I'm not able to go even higher in some cases to try to get a -58 back and
I'm not putting it on the ground.

Right. That makes sense. There are some that say that even with a clean fresnel 
going up or down 10 feet can change things. Never understood that.

2014-04-10 Thread LTI - Dennis Burgess
What he wants, is, here is my customer location, how HIGH do I need to go
to get an acceptable signal.  If you are going though trees or near a hill,
the Fresnel zones include constructive and nonconstructive zones.
 sometimes going up 5 feet may help and sometimes it would harm.  These are
only in the event that you have Fresnel zone encroachment.

Matt,

Signals do change as you change height as you expose or conceal 
the even number Fresnel zones.

 

Thank You,

Signals don't change as you increment heights. You're asking for real time 
foliage mapping. Not going to find it.

I'm not talking about customers plotting where their address is.  What I'm 
getting at is if I have a customer called in, I'd like to just punch in the 
location and then see if they'll work at ground level or how high we need to 
get off the ground and see the signal change as I increment height.

I'm wondering if there's another list/forum for this service, too.  There's no 
way I'm going write a bible of questions for support, it doesn't make a whole 
lot of sense for either of us.
