This includes washrooms, coffee areas, and meeting rooms. Do
not speculate where users can make calls.

Single and multiple floor deployment
Whether the deployment situation involves a single floor or multiple floors,
the deployment process uses basic rules.
• Deploy the external or outdoor areas first.
• Deploy from one side of the coverage area and then deploy the
opposite side of the coverage area.
•
Finish by deploying the middle of the coverage area.
Follow the preceding rules to prevent cell centers from clustering at one
end of the site.
Consult the floor plan to be sure that there are no areas where a handset
in the required coverage area can be outside the range of a cell center.
Defining a cell typically takes 25 to 40 minutes.
Single floor deployment
Deploying a single floor coverage area involves methods that apply to
all other applications of coverage. For more information about multi-floor
deployment, see “Multiple floor deployment” (page 78).
Use one or all of the following methods of deploying cells.
•
“Single-cell deployment” (page 73) – covers the distance between two
outside corners at the end of a coverage area with one cell.
•
“Double cell deployment” (page 75) – covers the distance between two
outside corners at the end of a coverage area with two cells.
•
“Multi cell deployment” (page 76) – covers the distance between two
outside corners at the end of a coverage area with more than two cells.
Always begin with the single cell method, because the range is not always
known; therefore, it is not known how many cells are needed to cover the
area between the critical points.
Start at the short side of the coverage area. First cover the corners, then
the side between those corners, and finally inward to the center of the
coverage area. Repeat the process for the other end of the coverage area.
