) company, announced today that ComOpt has become the latest member of the DTI claRiFy(TM) Teaming Program. The Teaming Program promotes the use of empirical interference data to enhance the effectiveness of industry-leading planning and optimization tools. Participants also coordinate marketing efforts and accelerate product integration.

The DTI Teaming Program focuses on advanced network planning tools and techniques that are critically important to wireless carriers. These tools and techniques include Automatic Frequency Planning (AFP (1) (AppleTalk Filing Protocol) The file sharing protocol used in an AppleTalk network. In order for non-Apple networks to access data in an AppleShare server, their protocols must translate into the AFP language. See file sharing protocol. ), Automatic Cell Planning (ACP (Associate Computing Professional) The award for successful completion of an examination in computers offered by the ICCP. It is geared to newcomers in the computing field. For more information, visit www.iccp.org.

), Propagation Modeling, Quality of Service (QoS) Prediction, and other areas of wireless network optimization. ComOpt, an established and recognized leader in the wireless industry, specializes in wireless network design and optimization and their products include solutions for automatic frequency planning, automatic cell planning and measured data handling. By integrating their products, ComOpt and DTI provide wireless operators and consultants enhanced network optimization through the combination of successful optimization tools with empirical and accurate drive test data. Carriers can now benefit directly from this product integration. Without additional investment in network infrastructure, they can expand network coverage and increase capacity, data throughput, and transmission quality by utilizing the output of the optimization tools that are populated with the empirical data provided by the claRiFy system. DTI and ComOpt will also undertake joint promotional and marketing efforts to support claRiFy(TM), CellOpt(R) AFP, CellOpt(R) ACP and CellOpt(R) MDA (1) (Monochrome Display Adapter) The first IBM PC monochrome video display standard for text. Due to its lack of graphics, MDA cards were often replaced with Hercules cards, which provided both text and graphics. See PC display modes and Hercules Graphics.  products.

"ComOpt is happy to partner with DTI as their new measurement data collection system claRiFy enhances the accuracy of our automatic wireless optimization applications though high-quality input data, even in cases where co-channel interference The confusion in the tuning circuit of a wireless receiver due to a second wireless signal being detected with the same frequency. Due to weather conditions, wireless communications systems (radio, TV, etc.  exists", says Joachim Samuelsson, President of ComOpt.

"Our Teaming arrangement with ComOpt demonstrates our commitment to providing best-in-class solutions to wireless systems engineers," said Paul Kline, DTI's President. "ComOpt is a respected leader in frequency and cell planning tools with an outstanding reputation for their tools. ClaRiFy data improves the heuristic A method of problem solving using exploration and trial and error methods. Heuristic program design provides a framework for solving the problem in contrast with a fixed set of rules (algorithmic) that cannot vary.

About claRiFy

ClaRiFy is a novel measurement system that improves spectrum utilization and network quality, reduces capital cost, and increases network operator's efficiency by accurately measuring the propagation and interference of GSM, CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band.  and WCDMA (Wideband CDMA) A 3G high-speed digital data service provided by cellular carriers that use the TDMA or GSM technology worldwide, including AT&T (formerly Cingular) and T-Mobile in the U.S.  networks. ClaRiFy simplifies some of the most technically difficult network problems by identifying the contributing sources of power on a single channel (called "co-channel interference"). In addition, claRiFy provides complete ("key-up" level) data without any need to manipulate the wireless network. The propagation and interference data from claRiFy can be used as input to planning tools (AFP, ACP, or network modeling) and/or the troubleshooting process. ClaRiFy takes the guess work out of the network performance analysis and helps carriers meet targeted capacity levels while maximizing utilization of existing infrastructure.

About DTI

DTI (Dynamic Telecommunications), a leader in wireless intelligence, designs, develops, and distributes high-speed, multi-standard wireless test and measurement solutions. DTI is known for the world-class speed and reliability of its SeeGull(TM) family of wireless receivers, which are sold globally and are designed to work with all of the world's leading wireless protocols. Other DTI products include propagation & interference measurement systems, Wi-Fi/WLAN test tools, transmitters, and base station testers. Customer applications for DTI's products include network optimization via drive testing Wireless service providers (especially in the USA) to build maps of signal strength for designing networks base stations, use a mobile setup with a spectrum analyzer, antenna and drive through the areas, thereby creating these signal-strength maps. This is called drive-testing. , site survey, base station monitoring, and radio propagation Radio propagation is a term used to explain how radio waves behave when they are transmitted, or are propagated from one point on the Earth to another.
