1. A method for determining an RF propagation pattern for a sector comprising:

  • collecting signal data throughout the sector, the signal data defining a plurality of signals having a respective signal strength value at a collection location;

    identifying an originating antenna for each of the plurality of signals received at the collection location;

    determining a path loss value for each signal; and

    normalizing the path loss value to obtain the normalized path loss value for each signal by combining the signal strength values of signals received from one or more antenna directed toward the collection location with signal strength values of signals received from one or more antenna not directed toward the collection location to determine an RF propagation pattern for the sector.
