The coverage data for one or more included radios assigned to IMariaRadioPlanLayer.IRadioCoverage is used when rendering the coverage plot. The different plot types are described below.

Selection of Plot Type

Selection of coverage plots are controlled with IMariaRadioPlanLayer.IRadioCoverage.PlotType

The following Plot Types are supported:

public enum PlotType
{
    SignalLevelDbm,
    PathLossDb,
    FieldStrengthDbuVm,
    LineOfSightToAny,
    LineOfSightToAll,
    CoverageRedundancy,
    DominantRadio,
    DominantRadioNet,
    LeastSignalLevelDbm,
}

Each Plot Type have one Colorschema that is available from the ColorSchemaStore.

Signal Level

This plot show the estimated received signal level in area. If coverage data from more then 1 radio is used, it will show the strongest estimated received signal level for any radio.

Unit used is dBm.

Signal level plot

Path loss

This plot shows the estimated path loss from a radio at each pixel within the coverage area. The value includes the antenna gain of the transmitting radio. If more that 1 radio is included, it will show the least path loss for any radio.

Unit used is dB.

Field strength

This plot show the estimated field strength from a radio at each pixel within the coverage area. This value is proportional with signal level. If more than 1 radio is included, it will show the highest value for any radio.

Unit used is dBµV/m.

Line of sight to any

This plot shows the number of radios with line of sight at each pixel within the coverage area.

Line of sight to any plot

Line of sight to all

This plot shows areas with line of sight to all included radios.

Line of sight to all plot

Coverage redundancy

This plot estimates the number of radios that has a received signal level in area above a selected thresold. Different numbers have different colors.

Unitless counter.

Coverage redundancy plot

Dominant radio

This plot shows the dominance area of a radio with a distinct color. The dominance area is the area where a radio has the highest estimated received signal level of all selected radios.

Dominant radio plot

Dominant radio net

This plot shows the dominance area of a radionet with a distinct color for radio net. The dominance area is the area where a radio net has the highest estimated received signal level of all selected radios.

This plot is similar to Dominant radio, with the exception that all radios in a radionet is shown with same color.

Least signal level

This plot shows the lowest estimated received signal level in area for any of the selected radios. This shows connectivity possibilites in area to all radios of interest.
