Abstract :
Proper coverage of service area in a cellular network largely depends on initial cell planning. The cell planning technique includes a lot of tasks such as nominal cell plan, coverage and interference predictions, field survey, system selection, system growth, etc. However, this paper includes only a theoretical model of cell site positioning, so that any irregular area can be covered with a combination of omni & sector cells most efficiently This model will be useful at the beginning of network planning in any urban/suburban/rural area
