next >Waypoint Capture

The plot shows CRIBS data capture software in waypoint capture mode. Waypoint capture is ideal for in building walk-test measurements and other situations where it is not possible to use GPS for location.

Waypoints are added to a building plan to show the user's current position. All operations, including zooming and panning of the display, are optimized for use with a tablet PC.

< previousnext >On-the-Fly Data Processing

CRIBS provides on-the-fly processing of RSSI and Quality-of-Service (QoS) data, and does not require a separate post-processing application.

This allows the display of RSSI data, estimated carrier-to-interference ratio (CIR) and location area code (LAC) during data capture. The data is saved in comma-delimited text (.csv) output files, that can be loaded directly into MAC Ltd's TRAMPS™ data analysis application for further analysis.
