Detailed RF Analysis is Key to Success
RF Site Survey Critical
RF Spectrum Analysis also
important to understand
operating environment
Plant Environments
Require Special
Consideration
Choice of Partner with
Experience in Such
deployments is absolutely
critical.

RF is 50% Art and 50% Science
1 Time RF Survey is not enough
Radio Frequency Deployments require
dynamic assessment.
ALL RF Mediums are subject to similar issues
(inc RFID, WLAN etc)
Why???

Real Time Location Services
Aerospace – Airplane Manufacturer
Tracking airplane parts in the assembly process, from the
point that they enter the facility until they are assembled
into the airplane. Goal is to reduce the process delay (and
cost) from lost/missing parts
Tracking tool cribs and high value tools used in the airplane
manufacturing and maintenance processes to reduce
process delay
