Presentation on CRC-COVLAB

1. CRC-COVLAB Coverage Prediction Software

2. CRC-COVLAB Coverage Prediction Software Design and optimize networks of transmitters Generate high accuracy service coverage results Strengthen the coverage Diagnose difficult coverage situations Mix technologies in a project Visualize predicted performance in 3D Compare simulation and measurements Calculate population reached Specify target areas and derive statistics on performance Automatically search and import broadcast stations Assess the impact of potential interfering stations

3. Our Clients North, Central, and South America, as well as Europe, Asia and Australia. Licensed throughout the world: Clients: governments, broadcast organisation, consultants, research labs, universities, national defense and public safety agencies.
