General Info:
> Dimensioning tool comprises of three main parts presented as ‘Link Budget’, 'Cell
Capacity' and 'Site Count' sheets.
The tool is compliant with RL10, RL20, RL30 and RL15TD, RL25TD.
> The system overhead (control channels and physical layer signals) is modeled with
allowance for PDCCH (3 OFDM symbols per TTI are assumed to be occupied by
PDCCH), PBCH, DL synchronization signal, DL/UL reference signal, PUCCH,
PRACH, aperiodic CQI on PUSCH and ACK/NACKs on PUSCH.
> Combo boxes on top of link budget scenarios help to restore default values of all
input parameters. If you want to edit the default parameters set, open ‘Defaults’
sheet.
> Indoor cell ranges can be calculated using indoor specific propagation models which
are implemented just below Macro model part, starting from row 136.

Uplink MCS
It may happen that there is no path loss for high MCS range.
This is usually caused by the very increase of interference
margin in case of higher and higher SINR requirement.
It does not mean however that "unplotted" MCSs will not be
used in the cell at all. They will be, but close to the eNB and not
at the cell-edge. Interference margin formula does not reflect
cell center environment and for this reason it is impossible to
dimension the cell with very high MCSs at the cell edge.
Anyway it would be unrealistic.
