The BTS (Base Transceiver Station) measurement is a rising forensics analysis able to fulfil lack of clues given by the mobile devices. Securcube®BTS Tracker performs the scan of the real cell towers coverage, that is the current ‘performance’ of the radio environment, based on variables that can occur, in the area of interest. Asking to the cellular providers, the cells lists obtained have the theoretical coverage, a ‘prediction’ of the expected service area covered by the provider infrastructure. Actually, the cells efficiency is subject to multiple variables (the weather, the network traffic, prioritization, roaming agreement etc.) that can affect importantly the theoretical outlook and this is what for the investigation, needs a careful evaluation to verify suspects’ alibi and presence at the time of the event
