Import and export data to FEKO

Gosia

Hi,

In connection in my master's thesis, I would like to ask you if you know the following functionalities is present in FEKO.

My master's thesis involves implementation an algorithm for planning tilt in antennas on example outdoor 4G mobile network. I need data from mobile network created in FEKO like coordinates of sectors, landform, received power at all points of the analyzed area. This data will be load into the algorithm, then proccess and load into FEKO to be able to simulate and present coverage statistics.

I'm looking for:

1) a tool that enables export and import data from and to FEKO or

2) a tool that enables implementation an algorithm in FEKO enabling for automating tilt setting.

Has anyone heard about functionalities in FEKO, used them?

I will be grateful for any answer!

As you already know Feko is a tool for Antenna design. 

What you mentioned above is belonging to the simulation areas covered by WinProp.

WinProp is a tool specialized in "wave propagation and network planning". 

WinProp can import the radiation pattern files from Feko and include geographical and building data (+ air interface).

(After that, you can do the various case studies by changing the antenna tilting angle for your network simulations.)

If you already installed Feko, you might easily get access to WinProp.

Thank you.
