RF Survey is carried out to find out best suitable
position for BTS cell site and Tower giving best
desired result for RF. RF survey is done after RF
Planning. RF Planning data is created based on
indoor outdoor coverage criteria in the circle
where mobile services are to be provided. RF
survey is important because it gives the visual
details to the RF Planner. Based on these details
RF Planner can create better model for providing
better coverage.

Drive Tests and Propagation Prediction software
are the two methods that are used to check the
coverage area of a particular wireless system.
Generally prediction software is used in
conjunction with the radio signal measurements in
order to determine an accurate picture of signal
propagation. In some cases, field measurements
may be needed to be taken in order to calibrate
the prediction software.

The data which is collected in the process of Drive
Test, that data is observed in the Analysis part.
Based on these observations the optimization of
Cell Site is done. There are following tools which is
used in Data Analysis
