Planet Cloud | Cloud-based RF planning

Scale and automate your radio planning

Improve radio network design efficiency and roll out next generation networks faster

Cloud-based RF planning

A next generation use case-centric approach to RF planning and optimization

Planet Cloud provides you with use case-centric radio planning capabilities at scale, enabling higher quality radio network designs, faster roll out of modern networks and, ultimately, improved network CAPEX and OPEX efficiency. Its cloud-native approach ensures high availability, openness, interoperability and dynamic scalability, allowing you to not only have detailed insights into your nationwide network but also to integrate network planning into other workflows throughout the network lifecycle.

Use cases

Use case-centric workflows

Man working on laptop in the office

Planet Cloud provides web UIs specifically tailored to end user workflows, removing the complexity often involved with RF planning applications. These UIs also extend the usefulness of Planet Cloud to other parts of the organization such as forecast reporting to the Cx0, or coverage and availability mapping for Customer Support teams. Being cloud-native with true core microservices allows for local customization of user control and datasets presented for each use case or job role.

Network-wide visualization and KPIs

Closeup of team looking at reports

Planet Cloud excels at accurately modeling the network so you can benefit from an optimal return on investment across your entire deployed network. It leverages horizontal scalability, not only for cell-level predictions but also networkwide coverage/interference/throughput plots and multi-level statistics from cell to market to national or any combination thereof. It benefits from resource autoscaling to scale reliably and support any geographical reporting requirement.

Regulatory conformance automation

5G tower

Planet Cloud's ability to seamlessly integrate with external data sources allows for automation of previously manual design exercises such as regulatory requirement checking as part of the cell design process. Using boundaries and configurations to automatically optimize cells to avoid any infringements of regulatory or other design criteria significantly reduces network design time.
