Abstract
A system, apparatus and method for installation of outdoor CPE (Customer Premise Equipment) for CBRS (Citizen Broadband Radio Service) for fixed wireless access is disclosed. The system comprises a database server which stores data comprising eNodeB locations and details, pathloss models and throughput prediction data. A position/orientation sensor and WiFi access point are attached to the CPE during installation. For a specified CPE height and a range of pointing angles, a smartphone app is used in scan mode to obtain KPI and evaluate nearby eNodeBs for performance based on stored parameters and link type, to provide estimated UL/DL throughput data for each eNodeB. After selecting an eNodeB, in network entry mode, a RF link between the CPE and eNodeB is established to request SAS grant. If successful in entering operational mode, actual throughput is measured to ensure the desired performance is attained, and data are reported back to the database.
