- Generate the terrain profile.
- Path clearance. Determine the antenna heights required for free space line of sight. This step may fail if the heights are impractical.
- Enter the radio, antenna and transmission line specifications. The receive signal level and fade margin are avail-able at this point.
- Calculate the availability due multipath fading.
- Calculate the availability due to high intensity rain.
- Determine if path is susceptible to obstruction fading. This step may require an increase in antenna heights.
- Determine if the path geometry supports a specular reflection.
- Determine if the path is susceptible to ducting.
