Abstract:
A method, system and computer for determining placement of at least one antenna of customer premises equipment in a fixed wireless access network are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes generating a map of signal strength for each of a plurality of possible antenna locations among one or more buildings. The method further includes identifying a percentage of a building having a level of wireless network coverage. The method also includes identifying a location of an antenna based on the map of signal strength and the identified percentage.
