Description
Summary:A simple model for estimating propagation coverage in a multiple-transmitter sequential paging system is described. The results of previous single-transmitter propagation studies are employed in a computer program where the resultant is a grid plot of hypothetical receiver locations, each with the expected number of transmitter signals exceeding the paging receiver threshold. The resulting plots readily show the areas where potential coverage problems may exist.
