Radio Wave Propagation Evaluation in Dynamic Factory Environments

The patent segments the evaluation process by dividing the factory space into multiple measurement positions. Instead of creating one comprehensive three-dimensional model of the entire factory, the system divides the space into smaller regions and performs radio wave propagation evaluations at each segmented position independently. This segmentation allows the evaluation to be completed much faster than creating a full factory model, while still providing sufficient accuracy for determining optimal base station locations.

The patent applies partial action by performing radio wave propagation evaluations only at selected measurement positions throughout the factory, rather than evaluating every point in the three-dimensional space. The system determines a plurality of measurement positions and conducts evaluations at these discrete locations, which provides adequate information for base station placement decisions without requiring exhaustive full-space evaluation.

The patent implements a dynamic evaluation approach where measurement positions are determined based on current environmental conditions and communication requirements. Rather than maintaining a static comprehensive three-dimensional model that requires frequent updates, the system dynamically selects relevant measurement positions and performs evaluations only where needed, adapting to environmental changes without requiring complete model reconstruction.

The patent performs preliminary determination of measurement positions based on anticipated evaluation needs. By pre-identifying where measurements should be taken based on the current factory layout and communication requirements, the system prepares the evaluation framework in advance, allowing for rapid execution when actual evaluations are needed without requiring time-consuming model updates.
