Metuchen, NJ -- Berkeley Varitronics Systems, Inc., the leader in
portable testing tools, is proud to release DragNet WiMAX site survey
mapping coverage software at WiMAX World 2008.
DragNet(TM) combines the power of realtime YellowFin(TM) WiMAX
measurements with GPS geo-coding accuracy. First, create your survey
bitmaps with Berkeley's GPS PROJECTOR software. Next, simply drive to
any spot with GPS reception while DragNet(TM) COLLECTOR scans selected
WiMAX Mobile channels and correlates them to your exact location
automatically via GPS. GPS measurements provide both LAT and LON as well
as time stamping for a complete WiMAX survey path anywhere in the world.
Survey data such as RSSI, Cell ID & Segment ID data on a preamble basis
may be exported into DragNet's ANALYZER for further mapping coverage
studies in multiple graphical and tabular layouts. Surveys may be
exported further into KML files for plotting in applications such as
Google Earth(TM). |

"DragNet
offers a complete site survey solution for our Mobile WiMAX customers
looking to perform drive-studies and post processing analysis of their
WiMAX networks while still in the field", says Scott Schober, BVS
President & CEO.
YellowFin(TM) is available now. Call
1-888-737-4287, visit www.bvsystems.com or BOOTH # 210 at WiMAX World
2008 from October 1-2.
YellowFin(TM) utilizes the Samsung Q1 Ultra tablet
UMPC as an interface in conjunction with Berkeley's precision receiver
technology for complete spectrum analysis as well as WiMAX packet
demodulation. The receiver sweeps the 2.0 - 5.9 GHz spectrums to within
+1.5 dB accuracy. YellowFin(TM) performs full spectrum analysis allowing
RF engineers to see the whole wireless network picture. Features include
power triggers, peak hold/search, markers and multiple waveform traces.
WiMAX packet analysis includes RSSI measurements for ID cell & segment,
multipath analysis and CINR
(Carrier-to-Interference-plus-Noise-Ratios) on a preamble basis. The
optional DF (Direction Finding) Antenna allows engineers to pinpoint
sources of WiMAX interference, rogue base stations and even nearby
hackers.
