Abstract
Technologies for automatically generating cell site construction plans are described. One method receives, from a user device, user input about a cell site in the cellular network. The method receives, from the user device, a request to generate a cell site construction plan using the user input and a construction plan template. In response to the request, the method retrieves a copy of a construction plan template, identifies a subset of design elements from a set of pre-defined design elements. The method populates a plurality of frames of a cell site construction plan with the subset of design elements, and sends the cell site construction plan to the user device.
Claims20
A computing system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more memories storing a site plan template, a set of pre-defined design elements corresponding to available cell site equipment, and instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the computing system to execute a site plan generator tool, the site plan generator tool to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, from a user device, user input about a cell site of a cellular network, the user input comprising tower requirements, antenna requirements, and equipment requirements;
- receiving, from the user device, a request to generate a cell site construction plan using the user input;
- automatically in response to the request:
- retrieving a copy of the site plan template to generate the cell site construction plan, the site plan template comprising a pre-defined layout of frames, each frame being assigned to include at least one of information or graphics, associated with the cell site equipment for the cell site, in a specific location in the cell site construction plan, wherein the cell site equipment comprises a tower or mounting structure, an antenna, a radio equipment, and a power system for the cell site;
- identifying, using the user input, a subset of design elements from the set of pre-defined design elements, the subset of design elements comprising design elements corresponding to the tower or mounting structure, the antenna, the radio equipment, and the power system;
- populating a plurality of frames of the cell site construction plan with the subset of design elements;
- and
- sending the cell site construction plan to the user device.
