Abstract:
The usage of telecom services is now creating a new vista in the societal applications. Increasing expectation of cell phone users and the usage of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) enabled services via cell phones in the entire world. These have driven demands to service providers to expand their network coverage to all the places including rural areas like Elwady Elseed Village River Nile State. The strategic location of telecom towers can ensure efficient provision of telecom services in a cost efficient manner.
The primary aim of this work is to demonstrate the effectiveness of advancement of geospatial technology for identifying optimized locations of new telecom towers strategically and analyze the nature of (height – low levels) to the test area. Furthermore we want to investigate the impact of highs and lows that might eventually disrupt signals and the distribution of towers in terms of coverage using GIS techniques. The outcome reported here is quite encouraging; the final results show a clear and direct strong relationship between signal strength and the valleys area under study. In order to overcome the weak signal strength or lack of signal, we found that it is necessary to add a new tower in the following geographical coordinates: longitude 32.839110°, latitude 16.472122°. This amendment will ensure that a signal is provided throughout the study area which was proven by a Viewshed Spatial Analysis and Signal Coverage Analysis - both have been integrated effectively.
