Use cases

Geodata on-demand

Business professional using Planet Cloud’s SaaS-based RF planning tool with worldwide geodata that simplifies collaboration and speeds planning

Planet Cloud includes a worldwide database of high quality geodata. Available geodata options include 2D, standard 3D and high-resolution 3D data. Using an integrated workflow and credits included in your subscription, you can extract the geodata you require, at the resolution that best suits your project requirements and budget. This enables you to begin working on a design in minutes and avoids the time-consuming and costly activity of acquiring geodata from a third-party vendor.

Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) planning

Business professional using Planet Cloud on laptop to design and optimize fixed wireless access (FWA) networks faster.

Whilst a typical mobile subscriber moves around and will be somewhat accepting of patches of poor network performance, for fixed wireless access users it is critical that the network can provide excellent throughput at customer premises equipment (CPE) locations. In addition to efficiently planning an FWA network, Planet Cloud can import the locations of all your CPEs and report on the network performance that can be expected at those locations.

Automation is a key enabler for wireless network planning efficiency. Planet Cloud’s automated cell planning (ACP) has two key use cases. In site selection mode it can select the optimal sites to meet the defined coverage and throughput criteria for an area, while in optimization mode, Planet Cloud’s ACP can optimize the cell configurations of all sites within a polygon to maximize network performance without building additional sites.

Private wireless network planning

Closeup of team looking at reports

A private wireless network is not one size fits all. You might need a low site density, large coverage network for agricultural monitoring, an ultra-low latency network for V2X applications, or a high-resilience solution for public safety applications. When planning a private wireless network, you need to determine the most cost-efficient design to meet the performance requirements of the business. Planet Cloud ensures you can efficiently plan a network aligned to your business requirements.
