Coverage ThresholdBasics
• Based on the calculated maximum allowed path loss in PBGT, the coverage threshold can be defined
• Coverage threshold depends on margins related to
• Location probability (= slow fading)
• Fast fading / Interference degradation
• Polarization / Antenna orientation loss
• Body loss
• Penetration losses (vehicle or building)

Full coverage of an area can never be guaranteed!
Coverage ThresholdLocation Probability
• Outages• due to coverage gaps Pno_cov
• due to interferences Pif
• Total location probability in a cell (1- Pno_cov) * (1- Pif)
• Both time and location probability
• Typical required values are 90-95%

• When calculating cell radius, LP is 50% by the cell edge and ~75% over the cell area
• To get 90% LP, the cell radius has to be reduced

Coverage ThresholdPolarisation / Antenna Orientation Loss
• Polarisation or antenna orientation losses depend on the orientation of the mobile antenna (vertical-horisontal)
• Typical loss 5-10 dB due to mismatch of polarisation
• Sometime taken into account but not always
11 © NOKIA 6-90200/ COVERAGE PLANNING/ 1.0
Coverage ThresholdBody Loss
• Body loss happens because of the existence of the human body
• Typical loss 5-10 dB depending on the distance between mobile and human body
• Typically taken into account in coverage threshold
12 © NOKIA 6-90200/ COVERAGE PLANNING/ 1.0
Coverage ThresholdPenetration Loss
• Penetration losses have to be added as mean value, and standard deviation need to be taken into account as well
• type mean sigma
• urban building 15 dB 7 dB• suburban 10 dB 7 dB• in-car 8 dB 5 dB
