Part 1: Site Survey and Overview of DECT Systems
6
Choose the Base Station positions required. This may need to be done in consultation with a
customer engineer. In choosing Base Station positions, the required cabling to the keyphone
system should be considered. Base Station positions must be defined such that later installa-
tion problems are minimised.
8. Having completed the above procedures, install the Base Stations in the positions marked
on the map.
Some example cell planning results are shown at the end of this chapter.
Checklist for Survey Data
Building Characteristics (for each building)
y Building identification (refer to maps if available)
y
What building is used for

Dimensions (refer to maps if available)
y Number of floors
y
Height of each floor
y
Partitioning per floor

radio coverage. Also list areas where radio coverage is not feasible or requires spe-
cific Base Stations.

Reporting Site Survey Results
It is important to make a comprehensive survey report that records site survey results
and provides useful information for the engineer who is to actually install the equip-
ment. The following information should be included in the survey report. (See the
DECT Survey Report Form over the page.)
y
A description of the site, explaining which buildings and grounds are to be included in the
report. A description of the topography of outdoor areas may be useful.
y
A specification of the construction of the buildings and construction materials.
y
Customer requirements for:
- the number of handsets
- required coverage
- performance requirements (traffic density, grade of service etc.)
y
The location and the type of the keyphone system (e.g. i DCS500, OfficeServ500).
