Network Planning & Design

In the age of stiff competition, smart handsets and increasingly sophisticated users, network quality is of paramount importance for telecom service providers for staying ahead of competition. Since most of these network planning and optimization projects will typically require substantial short to medium term increases in competent manpower, telecom operators would generally prefer to outsource such planning and optimization services to specialized technical service provider like WENET.

WENET has the technical knowhow as well as proven system and processes to support large scale radio network planning. Our team has successfully performed radio network planning and pre-launch optimization for more than 8000 new and swaps sites for various technologies v.i.z. GSM, CDMA, LTE, WiMAX and Broadband networks.. Typically, our scope of work includes capacity planning, traffic dimensioning, frequency and parameter planning, frequency allocation, model tuning, RF, line of sight (LOS) survey, (TSSR) survey and drive test.

Our resources are experts in developing the most appropriate RF and Transmission solutions to the customers. We Network has a team of qualified design consultants, surveyors and draftsmen well versed with GIS, Autocad and Network Engineer Tool, with years of experience in network planning, design and optimization

Network Benchmarking & Optimization

Radio network benchmarking is a critical ongoing network monitoring and management activity of every mobile network operator. In dynamic scenario of network traffic demands, it's imperative to reduce the operational cost through consistent optimization of the network elements. In telecom network of the existing networks every critical attribute of the access link that is susceptible is monitored and performance is analyzed. Our professional RF consultants provide assistance in determining the metrics which will usually comprise coverage area, accessibility and integrity of the existing networks. Through detailed collection and analysis of both operations statistics and drive test data, major performance-affecting problems on a cell, BSC and network level will be identified and highlighted. As a part of our Radio Network Benchmarking services, the performance of a particular network will be measured and compared against the performance of competing networks

This will reveal valuable insights on the competitive strengths and weaknesses of a particular network against its competitors – information which is extremely useful not just to the network manager for network improvement purposes, but also its marketing department for the formulation of marketing related activities. Any trend towards performance deterioration is identified and focused network performance improvement and optimization program will be carried out.

We have the experience of executing large scale RF continuous optimization - for projects involving more than 40,000 TRXs simultaneously.

WENET have the expertise to manage entire network with network reasonable cost, which enables telco's to reduce OPEX significantly.

Our field operations maintenance contract includes the responsibility for the day-to-day operation and maintenance of, BSC/RNC and transmission equipment as well as base station/Node B sites. We act as a field extension of our customers’ Tier-2/3 network engineering teams and perform a variety of corrective maintenance under the direction of the engineering team.

Some typical examples of our OMS activities include the following:

In Building Services

Comprehensive outdoor coverage alone is no longer acceptable to the millions of cellular phone users who are fast using their cellular handsets and other mobile devices as substitutes for their fixed telephone and internet lines. The ability of mobile operators to provide comprehensive and seamless coverage in indoor environment such as shopping malls, high rise offices, airport, hospitals and even underground car parks and subways is becoming a minimum service requirement. In crowded places like shopping malls, conferences, festival cities, exhibition centres etc, network engineering needs to be done to ensure network availability to all subscriber. Studies all over the world have concluded that good seamless in-building cellular coverage is now a basic hygiene need, and is now a key factor to customer satisfaction and improved ARPU.

We Network has a proven track record for the provisioning of full turnkey in-building solutions. We have experiences implementing in-building coverage solutions for buildings of all forms, shapes and sizes for mobile operators across the region. Our range of in-building solutions include passive, hybrid, fully active as well as more cost effective off-air repeater solutions. Each solution has its advantages and disadvantages. We will look into customer perspective when recommending the most suitable solution for each and every building scenario, taking into account building-specific constraints, traffic volume as well as ongoing operational cost and maintainability of the system.

In-building Solutions (IBS) are solutions that provides mobile coverage inside buildings, where the coverage, capacity or quality otherwise would not had been satisfactory. In-building Solutions are increasingly deployed and introduced to mobile networks, as user demands for “everywhere coverage” are matched by the opportunity for mobile operators to offer improved services and increase traffic revenues. Measurements show that up to 80% of the traffic generated from an in-building site.

People nowadays to a large extent also expect their mobile phones to work inside shopping malls, airports, metros, offices, hotels etc, and increasingly in places such as road and train tunnels, elevators and underground garages. Present and future mobile Internet services with high data rates provide numerous opportunities for the operators where tailor-made application packages may be introduced to satisfy any end-user service requirement at for example an office, airport, exhibition centre or subway station, conference centre, hotel or shopping mall.

WENET has the expertise to implement different architecture of in-building solutions. Dedicated Radio Base Stations, RBSs, that are connected to Distributed Antenna Systems, DASs, are commonly implemented solutions. These solutions provide additional capacity as well as covers “black holes” inside different kinds of buildings. A number of different types of both RBSs and DASs are available and the solutions can be customized for different buildings and needs. Repeaters are often used for buildings with a limited need for capacity, but where additional coverage is needed, like road tunnels and smaller buildings or parts of buildings.

Rapid Deployment Solution

Some areas require special solutions which include compact area difficult to deploy a site or temporary solution requirement due to environmental impact. In such situations Rapid Deployment Solution Is the ultimate alternative to the traditional deployment concept. This solution offers exclusive advantages in infrastructure deployment like; quickness, simplicity and cost efficiency. It consists of a dimensional and transportable modular foundation that allows a complete built-up of the System in a record time.

Its features make it unique:

Our most unique rapidly deployable solutions are as follows:

GRD Monopole –It is an on-ground RDS which is a very cost effective solution which is rapidly deployable within 12 hours even on the worst soils. No excavation work is required and the solution is also re-locatable.

Cell on wheels (COW) – A very common temporary solution which can be installed within hours. It can easily be re-located.
