Forsk announces its new Atoll In-Building module, the most recent addition to its Atoll RAN planning and optimisation product offering.
The new Atoll In-Building module allows in-building network design within the Atoll framework, providing operators with unique indoor/outdoor network planning capabilities.
Atoll In-Building includes a comprehensive set of indoor planning features, such as modelling of floor plans and building elements, indoor propagation, equipment installation layouts, and
automatic calculation of bills of materials, that enable operators to streamline the overall indoor/outdoor RAN planning process.
“We are proud to add in-building planning capabilities to Atoll”, says Benoit Guy, Forsk’s CEO, “this is a breakthrough in the RAN planning and optimisation space where outdoor and indoor planning tools had long been completely separated. Our strong R&D efforts have allowed us, with Atoll, to provide a single RAN planning and optimisation platform that can deal with country-wide network plans while supporting the centimetric precision that is required for in-building planning activities. Atoll is pushing the RAN planning and optimisation software market to the next level, where outdoor and indoor planning can be performed within the same tool. This will allow operators to design and deploy 5G wireless networks more effectively and help them streamline the overall network design process”.
