Atoll NB IoT
The Atoll NB-IoT module includes extensive cellular IoT functions. Atoll offers a
powerful platform for operators to plan and optimise NB-IoT networks as
independent deployments or on top of LTE. Atoll is being used by a large
number of IoT operators worldwide.
Atoll supports integrated network planning for 3GPP and 3GPP2 multi-RAT networks. It
features a multi-technology network database, a unified traffic model, a combined Monte Carlo
simulator, and a multi-RAT ACP (Automatic Cell Planning) module.
Atoll provides operators with a comprehensive and evolutionary framework for planning and
optimising multi-technology networks including small cells, integrated Wi-Fi, and IoT.
