MUSA
Coverage optimization
Purpose of Coverage Optimization
Simulating the effect that a change in a particular parameter of a cell
(within a predefined set) produces on field
The results that are shown affect only the measurements loaded and
only the portion in which at least one sample for the cell “optimized” is
found. No predictions are available

Opening optimization tool
It is necessary to close all files before
starting with the optimization tool

Measurements loadings

Heights informations
To perform simulations MUSA uses data contained in the territory
height information files expected available in the folder:
\Projects\<PROJECT_NAME>\Environment\Heights.
If no heights files are available, MUSA presumes that the territory is an
ideal plane at height of 0 m a.s.l.

Saving and loading modifications
Parameter modifications are not automatically saved
Through Save Delta button, the parameter modifications are saved
in a .op file
(default folder: Projects\<PROJECT_Name>\Results\Optimization .
Through Load Delta button the .op saved file is loaded
Through Redo Pixelling button a new pixel based measurement file
with _opt suffix is created in the measurement\scanner folder.
