RF Capacity

2 radios were
“heavily utilized”
80-100% of the
time.
(“Heavily utilized” is
80%+ utilization).
(Only “on time” is
considered. That is,
blocks of time the
radio is doing
something, not the
middle-of-the-night).

Network Deviations
Anomalies illustrated for

Shown here, the current
reading (blue, green),
plotted against 40-week
average +/– one
standard deviation.
Average for any given
period of time, (for
example, noon-12:10 on
a Friday), is calculated
for that same time-period
(noon-12:10) for the
previous 40 Fridays.
(Average is NOT simply
the previous few days).
