How the Drive Test RSRP Coverage Quality Calculator works
Enter how many drive-test samples fall in each RSRP range.
Percentages are each count divided by the total.
Choose a threshold to report coverage as the share of samples at or above it.
The formula
Worked example
Using the default values shown in the calculator:
| Samples ≥ −80 dBm (excellent) | 1200 |
|---|---|
| Samples −80 to −90 dBm (good) | 4200 |
| Samples −90 to −100 dBm (fair) | 3800 |
| Samples −100 to −110 dBm (poor) | 1500 |
| Samples < −110 dBm (very poor) | 300 |
| Coverage threshold | RSRP ≥ −100 dBm (fair or better) |
- Total samples = 11,000. Excellent 10.9%, good 38.2%, fair 34.5%, poor 13.6%, very poor 2.7%.
- Coverage at RSRP ≥ −100 dBm = 83.6%.
Result:
| Excellent (≥ −80) | 10.9% |
|---|---|
| Good (−80 to −90) | 38.2% |
| Fair (−90 to −100) | 34.5% |
| Poor (−100 to −110) | 13.6% |
| Very poor (< −110) | 2.7% |
| Coverage at the chosen threshold | 83.6% |
| Total samples | 11,000 |
Frequently asked questions
What RSRP threshold counts as coverage?
Many operators use −100 to −105 dBm for outdoor coverage and stricter values (−95 to −90 dBm) for in-building planning. Use your own KPI target.
Is RSRP enough?
No. Pair coverage with SINR and throughput statistics; strong RSRP with poor SINR indicates interference.
