Zusammenfassung:A computer system for graphically indicating quality of Radio Frequency (RF) connection for a floor plan of a building is provided, A computer processor is configured to identify wall types and determine a wall property for a plurality of walls included in the floor plan, predict an RF signal strength from an RF transmitter positioned at a certain location on the floor plan, determine a prediction confidence level based on signal measurements, determine an RF connectivity level for respective RF receivers to be located in different areas of the floor plan based on analysis of the associated predicted RF signal strength, mounting inclination and orientation of the receiver devices, determined wall properties associated with walls located in expected paths of predicted RF signals, and an associated link margin, and provide a GUI on a computer display indicating a visualization of RF connectivity levels on areas of the floor plan.
