FEATURES IBwave Design Enterprise Vs Lite

This document compares the technical features and modules of the Design, Propagation, Collection, and Optimization modules of the LITE and ENTERPRISE versions of DAS Design software. The ENTERPRISE version includes more advanced features such as modeling of multi-layer floor plans, inclined surfaces, 3D propagation maps, capacity analysis, and integration with additional iBwave software products. Both versions support modeling of wireless technologies, frequency bands, and signal propagation modeling.
