Abstract

The present invention makes use of a database of existing site surveys of a variety of locations and sites producing a plurality of test-bed templates and also a variety of simulation models of actual layouts and sites producing a plurality of simulation templates. The simulation templates and test-bed templates are used to find a best match to a new layout for planning a new wire-less computer network. Data comprising of performance parameters from the templates are used to generate network performance contour overlays that may be superimposed on the new layout.
