Mobile networks planning strategy and development solutions

In this paper I propose a few solutions to improve the planning strategy in different type of mobile networks using special software and network analyzing tools. Frequently maps are used as information sources in different departments of mobile network operators, GSM, 3G service provider companies, or future LTE networks implementation. Using digital databases and professional analysis tools drastically increases efficiency of develop and planning activities. Such type of application as RTM (Radio Telecommunications Modeling) was developed in cooperation with “RDS-RCS” 3G network planners in order to automate their daily tasks and improve the Network Planning Department work. Paper also present overview of an mobile network operator tasks, witch can be simplified using Gis (Geographical information system), and analyze the option to use co-siting conditions to reuse existing GSM site and extend 3G network or implement new one as LTE. Benefits of using professional analyzing tool for specified network parameter measurement and network planning operations are also mentioned, presenting tables with different network parameters and drawings.
