| Abstract | ||
| In the present study, practical field measurements of a selected real site locations of a selected asiacell towers have been done by using Germain GPS receiver, then the obtained GPS dataset were delivered to GIS desktop (Global Mapper9.2) for creating a new layer to be combined with DEMs file (resolution of 90 m) and satellite image of Mosul city, for the purpose of creating 3D visualization of the towers locations. This leads to easily manage the towers locations data and to study the effect of the topographic variation on the coverage range of each tower. According to the topographic features of the study area, the results showed that the increase in the high transmission antennas leads to an increased coverage area of the cell. Also, radius of the coverage of the transmitter of (2 kilometers) gives a very good coverage for the case of 25m transmitting antenna height and 1.5m receiving antenna high as compared with other radius values Finally, the 3D visualization in the GIS will support spatial analysis in the practical fields of Communications. | ||
