4.5.3 PTP LINKPlanner
Link planning enables a link of known quality to be installed. This involves the acquisition of
path profile data (using Motorola’s free LINKPlanner utility). The LINKPlanner predicts data
rates and reliability over the path. It allows the user to try different antenna heights and RF
power settings. When the link is installed, the mean path loss can be checked to confirm that
the predicted data rate and link reliability is achievable. Motorola LINKPlanner is available to
download from http://www.motorola.com/ptp/support.
