Sourced 198 vendor-published MSI Planet pattern files via the
wireless-planning.com aggregator (data1.mlinkplanner.com). Real
patterns now ship for: Cambium (6), Ubiquiti (154), RF Elements
(27), MARS (5), MTI Wireless (1), Tarana (2), Ruckus (1), RFE (2).
Files dropped into priv/antennas/<vendor>-<part>.msi; the existing
boot loader picks them up and they override the synthesized catalog
entries by slug where the slugs match.
Parser improvements to handle real-world MSI file quirks:
- File-extension filter now accepts .ant/.msi (case-insensitive).
- Slug normalisation: spaces, +, and other non-alnum collapse to
hyphens.
- Header parser splits on whitespace runs (tab or space) — different
vendor tools produce different delimiters.
- New parse_frequency_mhz/1 handles "5500", "5 GHz", "5GHz",
"5.6GHz", "5500 MHz", "5150-5850" (centre frequency), and
"5.45 - 5.85 GHz" formats. Replaces the old integer-only parse.
- 2 MARS files with non-360 angular resolution and 1 with
angle-less pattern lines were excluded; the rest parse cleanly.
Total registry now 305 antennas: 198 real vendor patterns + 107
synthesized catalog entries (used as fallback for SKUs without
public .msi files: Cambium ePMP/PMP variants, Tarana G1/G2,
ALPHA, ITELITE, KP Performance, RADWIN, Mimosa, etc.).
Leaflet auto-load fix:
- The location-picker map wasn't appearing because the form page
didn't have the inline <script> tag the existing site map uses
to load Leaflet. AGENTS.md forbids inline <script> in templates,
so I added an ensureLeaflet() helper in app.ts that lazy-loads
/vendor/leaflet/leaflet.{js,css} on first hook mount and caches
the promise. SitesMap, CoverageMap, and CoverageLocationPicker
all use it now — no inline scripts needed.
The compute pipeline now actually runs: per-pixel path loss over LIDAR
terrain, antenna pattern lookup, real GeoTIFF + colored PNG output,
Leaflet imageOverlay rendering with opacity slider and dBm legend.
Propagation:
- Towerops.Coverages.Propagation: Friis FSPL + Bullington single-knife-edge
diffraction (ITU-R P.526). Pure Elixir, closed-form, no NIF dependency.
Clean signature so a future ITM/Longley-Rice backend can drop in.
- Towerops.Coverages.Profile: AAIGrid sampler with elevation_at, sample
along great circle, haversine distance.
- Towerops.Coverages.Raster: Float32 GeoTIFF via gdal_translate (with VRT
wrapper) and colored PNG via gdaldem color-relief. Outputs to
priv/static/coverage/<org>/<id>/, served by existing Plug.Static.
Worker:
- Towerops.Workers.CoverageWorker now does the full pipeline: bbox compute
-> Towerops.Lidar.get_elevation_grid -> per-pixel Task.async_stream
(parallel = schedulers) running antenna pattern lookup + propagation +
RSSI threshold check, write rasters. Configurable terrain source via
:coverage_terrain_module application env so tests can stub. Friendly
failure messages for :no_tile, :grid_too_large, :nodata,
:unknown_antenna, :missing_location.
Bundled antenna catalog (~95 entries):
- AntennaCatalog with compact specs for every antenna in the request list:
Cambium, ALPHA, Antel, ITELITE, KP Performance, L-com, MARS, MikroTik,
Mimosa, MTI, RADWIN, RF Elements, Ruckus, Tarana, Simulate, Ubiquiti.
- Antenna.from_spec/1 synthesizes 360+360 attenuation patterns from
gain+beamwidth (cosine-squared main lobe, smooth transition,
front-to-back floor with mild ripple). Real .ant files in priv/antennas/
override the catalog by slug. Test fixtures moved to test/support.
Schema (migration add_radio_fields_to_coverages):
- tx_power_dbm replaces eirp_dbm; EIRP is now derived as
tx_power + antenna.gain - cable_loss in Coverage.eirp_dbm/2 and shown
live in the form header.
- cable_loss_db, sm_gain_dbi, latitude_override, longitude_override,
height_above_rooftop_m, tx_clearance_m, foliage_tuning (0-100 slider).
- Coverage.location/1 returns {lat, lon} from override or parent site.
UI:
- form.html.heex: cnHeat-style grouped form (Identity / Location /
Mounting / RF / Coverage extent), foliage tuning range slider,
computed EIRP badge in the header.
- show.html.heex: Leaflet map area with L.imageOverlay heatmap,
opacity slider, dBm color legend, antenna marker with directional
wedge for azimuth.
- assets/js/app.ts: CoverageMap hook registered.
Tests: 24 new (propagation reference values, profile sampling,
worker end-to-end with stubbed terrain that writes real GeoTIFF + PNG,
org-mismatch job-cancel guard). Full suite: 10815 tests.
End-to-end CRUD scaffold for per-site, per-antenna RF coverage
prediction. Schema, context, antenna registry, Oban worker stub, and
three LiveViews are wired up; the actual ITM + LIDAR + buildings
compute pipeline lands in a follow-up.
- Migration + Coverage schema with full validation (RF params, pixel-
budget cap, antenna_slug existence). organization_id excluded from
cast (programmatic-only).
- Coverages context: org-scoped CRUD, validate_site_in_organization
rejects cross-tenant site_id refs at insert/update, queue_compute
with PubSub broadcast on per-coverage and per-org topics.
- MSI Planet .ant parser + persistent_term registry loaded at boot
from priv/antennas/. Two synthetic .ant fixtures (omni + 90deg
sector) bundled.
- CoverageWorker on new :coverage Oban queue (concurrency 2). Job
args carry organization_id; worker refuses to run on org mismatch.
Stub flips status to "failed" with "compute not yet implemented"
so the UI flow is exercisable.
- LiveViews: index (org-wide, live status updates), form (antenna
picker grouped by manufacturer), show (status banners, params
panel, map placeholder). Sidebar nav link added.
- Routes /coverage, /coverage/new, /coverage/:id, /coverage/:id/edit
under :require_authenticated_user_with_default_org.
- 41 new tests covering schema validation, .ant parsing, context
CRUD with cross-org guards, Oban job enqueue.
