Most Recent Coverage Holes
Coverage holes are areas where clients cannot receive a signal from the wireless network. When
deploying wireless networks, there is a trade-off between the cost of the initial network deployment
and the percentage of coverage hole areas. A reasonable coverage hole criterion for launch is between
2 and 10 percent. This means that between two and ten test locations out of 100 random test locations
may receive marginal service. After launch, the OmniVista AirView Software identifies these coverage
areas and reports them to the IT manager, allowing the IT manager to fill holes based on user demand.
Note that the Standalone WPS Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless System described in About the Alcatel
OmniAccess Wireless System in the Alcatel OmniAccess Wireless Product Guide does not support voice
or data clients or detect coverage holes.
