Model wireless coverage before installation.

How it works

Bring in a DXF floorplan, confirm scale, and mark the walls that affect propagation.

01 / Import the plan

Bring in a DXF floorplan, confirm scale, and mark the walls that affect propagation.

Pick radios and antennas from a catalog of real hardware and drop them on the plan.

02 / Place real equipment

Pick radios and antennas from a catalog of real hardware and drop them on the plan.

The map renders wall-aware signal strength, SNR, and overlap as you move equipment.

03 / Read the coverage

Export maps and findings into a branded, client-ready PDF with editable recommendations.

04 / Deliver the report

The problem

Planning indoor wireless coverage has meant heavyweight desktop software, expensive licenses, and hand-built reports. Installers and integrators end up guessing at access point placement, or paying for a site survey after the hardware is already on the wall.

Engineering behind it

  • Running a real multi-bounce propagation solver fast enough to feel interactive, entirely in the browser
  • Turning messy CAD floorplans into walls and materials the simulation can trust
  • Keeping a catalog of real equipment accurate across Wi-Fi, CBRS, private 5G, and UWB bands
  • Producing reports that show their assumptions, so a client can review the result rather than take it on faith

What it does

A CAD-like 2D workspace for RF design: import a floorplan, place real hardware, and watch modeled coverage update across the site. It is built for the people who install and maintain the network, as a lighter-weight alternative to desktop RF planning suites.

Core Capabilities

  • Interactive engineering simulation in the browser: Rust and WebAssembly make it possible to run the propagation engine in a web worker, so there is nothing to install.
  • Multi-band planning: Wi-Fi, CBRS, private 5G, and UWB, with explicit wall losses and published propagation models.
  • Real equipment catalog: Place access points and antennas from real vendors, with band and mounting details.
  • Modeled coverage you can evaluate: Predicted signal strength, SNR, SINR, overlap, and dead zones compared against targets you set. Results are model predictions based on the floorplan and the stated assumptions, not field measurements.
  • Client-ready reports: Branded PDFs with maps, assumptions, equipment, findings, and editable recommendations, plus PNG and CSV export.

Status

SiteRF is live at siterfapp.com, with a free tier and an in-browser access point demo you can try without signing up. If you design or install wireless networks and want a faster way to show clients what they're getting, we'd love to hear from you.
