HomeMy WebLinkAbout8.UP25-0003 Coverage MapsELSEY 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. Introduction: There are two main drivers that prompt the need for a new cell site.One is coverage and the other is capacity.
