Current radio telecommunications cell radius estimation methods can result in spurious and inaccurate results outside regions with well sampled signal measurements. The present invention provides an improved cell radius estimation method using path loss and signal source distance data as well as a method for determining models for use in cell estimation without test data. The methods apply a fixed gradient line fit to the data to obtain cell radius estimates and to determine models for one or more geomorphology classifications. Cell radius estimates determined from the test data and the models can be used for cell distribution planning in network coverage planning applications. The invention provides improved accuracy as well as reduced costs in the network planning stage.
