700 & AWS LTE Coverage plots
Prepared by Verizon Wireless
Capacity is the need for more wireless
resources.Cell sites have a limited amount
of resources to handle voice calls,data
connections,and data volume.When these
limits are reached,user experience quickly
degrades.This could mean customers may
no longer be able to make/receive calls nor
be able to browse the internet.It could also
mean that webpages will be very slow to
download.
Coverage is the need to expand
wireless service into an area that
either has no service or bad service.
The request for service often comes
from customers or emergency
personnel. Expansion of service could
mean improving the signal levels in a
large apartment complex or new
residential community. It could also
mean providing new service along a
newly built highway.
