The WinProp Getting Started Guide contains step-by-step instructions on how to get started with WinProp.
The Altair installation directory contains a collection of examples that shows you WinProp concepts and essentials.
WinProp is a complete suite of tools in the domain of wireless propagation and radio network planning. With applications ranging from satellite to terrestrial, from rural via urban to indoor radio links, WinProp’s innovative wave propagation models combine accuracy with short computation time.
View the typical workflows when working with propagation simulations in specific scenarios, how to add a network planning to a propagation simulation, include a receiver pattern, set up a time-variant scenario, include multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) at both the base station and the mobile station, connectivity analysis of sensor networks and optimization.
The WallMan component offers a convenient facility to generate and edit vector building databases.
The TuMan tool enables you to generate and modify tunnel scenarios.
Use AMan to generate, edit and analyze a single antenna. Superimpose multiple antennas radiating similar signals to determine the actual antenna pattern while taking into consideration the local environment.
The ProMan component includes wave propagation models for different scenarios and network planning simulators for various air interfaces.
WinProp includes empirical and semi-empirical models (calibration with measurements possible), rigorous 3D ray-tracing models as well as the unique dominant path model (DPM).
In WinProp various air interfaces and applications are pre-defined: broadcasting, cellular, wireless access, WiFi, sensor networks, ICNIRP and EM compliance.
The OptMan component allows the automatic optimization of orientations of antennas in cellular networks to achieve various targets.
The CoMan component allows the simulation of the reliability and connectivity in wireless mesh / sensor networks.
The WinProp utilities consist of the Launcher utility and the Updater.
The Launcher utility is a single application that allows you quick access to the shortcuts for the Feko components, WinProp components, newFASANT, WRAP components, documentation, Altair license utility and updating parallel credentials. Pin the application to the taskbar for quick launching.
The feko_update_gui utility and the feko_update utility allows you the flexibility to install an update containing features, minor software enhancements and bug fixes on top of an existing base installation for Altair Feko (which includes Feko, newFASANT and WinProp).
Each major release, upgrade or update is assigned a version number. A version number contains a unique set of numbers assigned to a specific software release for identification purposes. You can determine from the version number if its an initial release, update or upgrade.
Use the feko_update_gui to check for new versions of the software and install an update using a graphical user interface (GUI).

Updating and upgrading refers to the process of installing a new version containing features, minor software enhancements and bug fixes on top of an existing base installation.
Update (or upgrade) from a local repository using the graphical user interface.
Schedule and configure an automatic Feko update.
Use the feko_update utility for scripted updates or updates from a Feko terminal.
The feko_update_gui utility and feko_update utility (GUI and command line) use the system proxy by default, although it may be changed or the use of a proxy suppressed.
Create a local Feko update repository to allow users to update without internet access or to limit the list of update versions that users can use. Local update repositories can also be used to reduce the amount of data being downloaded by downloading a repository once and making it available to many local machines or compute clusters.
