Terrain Analysis Package (TAP) Radio Propagation Software - Types of Coverage

RF Wireless Applications and Applications for TAP

Almost every industry relies upon wireless communications for a huge diversity of telecommunications needs. SoftWright's Terrain Analysis Package Software (TAP)^tm is used by wireless system designers to establish a high confidence level in the adequacy of a particular location of radio transmitter and receiver site, proposed antenna radiation pattern, and overall reliability of their critical system performance. These pages will describe the approach that many engineers take using TAP to predict their system's coverage prior to actual construction or identify problem areas after a system is put into operation. We have listed a diverse array of arenas where TAP can be used. Click on the service below that is your personal area of interest to learn specific details about recommended software applications to assist in these types of engineering analysis.. Also, our significant article on the comparison of many different rf propagation models can be found on this page.
