create_cells: create_cells

In R-ramljak/MNOanalyze: Spatial Density estimation and Analysis pipeline for Mobile Network Operator (MNO) data

Description

Create a specific tower layer with attached directional cells

Usage

create_cells(
  area.sf,
  tower.dist,
  rotation.deg,
  jitter,
  small = FALSE,
  subscript,
  seed
)

Arguments

area.sf	sf dataframe, focus area with geometry column (tile polygons)
tower.dist	numeric value, distance between towers (e.g., in meters, however in general dimensionless)
rotation.deg	numeric value, layer rotation of directional cells, sectorized, in reference to the northern direction
jitter	numeric value, amount of jitter (e.g., in meters, however in general dimensionless)
small	logical value, TRUE for omnidirectional cell and FALSE for directional cell
subscript	character value, abbreviation for layer id
seed	numeric value, seed for reproducibility

Value

A data frame with antennas of the specfic layer in the rows and the the following columns: point location (x, y), tower.id, cell.id, cell.kind (layer), intra.cell.number (in case of directional cells, three antennas per tower, sectorized), kind of cell (directional or omnidirectional), and rotation degree. This data frame corresponds to an unvalidated cell plan that can be validated with 'create_cellplan()'.
