Calculation Process
Requirements for a Transmitter to be taken into account in the calculation
Active Filtered (Transmitter or Site folder) Calculation area intersecting the rectangle including the Computation Zone
Calculation process
1) Calculate the Path Loss matrices
Atoll will calculate the Path Loss matrices missing Atoll will recalculate an existing Path Loss matrix if one parameter related to the propagation has been changed (parameters such as the antenna type / azimuth / height, the propagation model, the matrix calculation radius, the computation zone, etc.)
2) Create the plot 3) Lock the plot

After a prediction has been calculated, a lock symbol will appear on it
This lock symbol will prevent Atoll from recalculating the prediction if you press on the Calculate icon
