Detailed explanation-1: -8. What is the main reason to adopt hexagon shape in comparison to square and triangle? Explanation: For a given distance between the center of a polygon and its farthest perimeter points, the hexagon has the largest area. Thus, by using the hexagon geometry, the fewest number of cells can cover a geographic region.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which of the following is a universally adopted shape of cell? Explanation: Hexagonal cell shape is a simplistic model of radio coverage for each base station. It has been universally adopted since the hexagon permits easy and manageable analysis of a cellular system.
Detailed explanation-3: -A hexagon is a tessellating cell shape in that cells can be laid next to each other with no overlap; therefore, they can cover the entire geographical region without any gaps. This approximation is frequently employed in planning and analysis of cellular networks.
Detailed explanation-4: -Which of the following statements support the fact that the hexagon shape is utilised for the coverage of the radio? The number of cells needed when hexagon shape is used is few.
Detailed explanation-5: -Normally, omnidirectional antennas are used in center-excited cells and sectored directional antennas are used in corner-excited cells.
