142 Using RF Planning
To create RF obstacles for all objects in a layer
1
Click Layers in the Organizer panel to bring up a list of the layers in the drawing.
2
Right-click one of the layers in the Organizer panel.

The layer's objects are now obstacles in your floor plan.

Import a Site Survey

You can import RF measurement data by means of a site survey done outside of WMS. Using the Site Survey Order
report from WMS, a map is created of your site that can be used in an Ekahau site survey. After the survey is complete,
the measurement data can be imported back into WMS, and RF obstacles adjusted. In this way, actual, measured infor-
mation about RF obstacles can be obtained and incorporated into your plan.
This guide contains post-deployment information about optimization on
page 210. For pre-deployment information about optimization, refer to "Optimizing a Network Plan" in the Nortel WMS
Reference Manual.

Plan RF Coverage

How you plan the RF coverage for your network depends on whether you are planning for the widest coverage or if you
are planning for capacity. There are other contributing factors. One group of users might be mobile and require high
throughput performance (a higher bandwidth), while another group of users are more stationary and require less
throughput.
