In Germany, 2 x 8MHz spectrum was assigned to Public Protection and Disaster Release (PPDR) services in the 700MHz frequency band. Currently public authorities operate for blue light services a national TETRA network using approximately 4,700 base station sites. This technical report examines the site portfolio for a national PPDR LTE network in 700MHz based on planning parameter for a PPDR network in Spain as published in [1]. Furthermore, the resulting planning margins are analysed using a common methodology for the nominal site count planning. Both planning approaches show that the number of sites given by TETRA is sufficient for a high quality LTE-based PPDR network in Germany.
The following chapter shows the assumptions taken for the network planning. In chapter 3, the planning approach in Spain is summarized and applied for the site layout in Germany. In chapter 4, a common method for the nominal planning is used. However, in this case this method was applied not for obtaining the number of required sites, but for calculating the power budget margins if using the existing number of sites. Chapter 5 summarises this technical study.
