ANALYZING WIRELESS SIGNAL PROPAGATION

In some aspects, a wireless-spectrum analysis technique includes obtaining, at a computer system, a simulated spatial distribution of a wireless signal parameter (e.g., spectral power). The simulated spatial distribution is based on a computer-simulation of wireless signal propagation in a geographic region. A measured spatial distribution of the wireless signal parameter is obtained at the computer system. The measured spatial distribution is based on measurements performed by wireless sensor devices in the geographic region. Each of the wireless sensor devices is configured to provide local parameter measurements based on wireless signals detected by the wireless sensor device. The simulated spatial distribution is compared with the measured spatial distribution. In some instances, the simulated spatial distribution geographic region is modified based on the comparison.
