Abstract
The radio planning tool environment is an important factor in planning, optimizing and managing a UMTS network successfully. Tools that support the overall radio interface planning process are needed. This implies that the tools must address a variety of functional high-level key areas like design, analysis, measurement collection, and data management. This chapter addresses the key requirements of a UMTS planning tool environment for these high-level areas, and it also addresses particular requirements to support the radio interface planning process in a UMTS network.
