Chapter 1: Repeater System BasicsPage 6

To determine if the site you have chosen will cover the required area, a coverage map should be drawn

for that site. A coverage map shows the areas that the proposed radio system will effectively cover

with line-of–sight paths. Mobile coverage maps are a bit of an “art form” because you have to use your

imagination. In spite of this, they end up being quite accurate, and are much less expensive than a ﬁ eld

survey. In addition, if more than one site is required, prepare proﬁ les of the path between the sites.

A coverage map and path proﬁ le are shown in Figure 1-5. Detailed information about drawing coverage

maps is available in appendix A, and detailed information on path proﬁ les can be found in Appendix B.
