PathDesigner®

Microwave Automation Software

PathDesigner® is CIC's proprietary microwave automation software created to automate the labor intensive requirements of microwave path, network design and data management. Using PathDesigner® your savings increase exponentially with the number of links in a network. Save time in the design of complex microwave networks and reduce errors to near zero. PathDesigner® works seamlessly with customer databases, PathLoss 5.1, other microwave design software, and most mapping software to manage and control data. All of this means one thing to our Customers - Lowest Overall Cost for Design and Development, GUARANTEED.

PathDesigner® Software allows a Wireless Operator to:

  • Rapidly create budgets and BOMs, evaluate cost options, saving capital and operating expenses
  • Rapidly perform redesign in changing marketplaces
  • Optimize topology choices
  • Electronically integrate data with Frequency Coordinators, always maintaining PathLoss files up to date
  • Multiple engineers can work on design while maintaining data integrity
  • Automate backhaul design with ring, spur or point to point topologies
  • Monitor network hardware choices

FEATURES SPECIFIC TO POINT TO MULTI-POINT NETWORKS (RURAL BROADBAND)
* Full base station (BTS) definition editing including sectors and CPEs.
* Automated selection of best sites to use as BTS sites for maximum CPE coverage with minimum BTS count.
* Applies to both completely new designs, as well as when augmenting existing networks with new sectors, new BTS sites, or even just adding CPEs to existing sectors.
* Sector azimuths may be restricted to a set of predefined values (e.g. 0, 90, 180, 270 degrees) or optionally, the tool will set sector azimuths for optimal CPE coverage.
* Path performance as well as sector capacity and number of CPEs limitations are respected.
* Path blockages & associated diffraction losses are accounted for using terrain & clutter data.
* Automatic application of all settings and equipment to BTSs and CPEs.
* Creation of all Pathloss files (link files and maps) and bulk population with all equipment and parameters. (note that the use of Pathloss is optional)
* Mapping in Pathloss of sector -3dB coverage

TESTIMONIAL

CIC representatives can be depended on to understand and explain the lease and its implications to prospective landlords. T-Mobile feels that CIC negotiates the lease as if it were its own money; a quality very much appreciated by management.

In addition, there has never been an instance of a landlord complaint and they maintain a high level of professionalism in the office. I would not hesitate to recommend CIC.
