WLAN Design & Predictive Modeling
A network design is the basis for any complex wireless network. For wireless LAN projects, we begin by defining the wireless network requirements such as security, coverage areas, network speed, primary current and future applications, user types & densities, aesthetic limitations, and any restrictions imposed by the existing wired LAN. We use a combination of classic "can you hear me now" site surveys, spectrum analysis, and computer-based predictive modelling to design the WLAN. The network design activities include RF channel planning, AP location mapping, WLAN cell power design, and other AP configuration settings. Project management is provided to oversee all stages of the deployment.
For outdoor wireless networking projects, we begin by collecting site-specific data required to create the custom point-to-point or point-to-multipoint network. Such information includes GPS locations of the sites and exact building heights, indoor equipment locations, outdoor hardware mounting limitations, power and grounding locations or limitations. The survey also includes spectrum analysis for FCC unlicensed spectrum, and radio equipment placement documentation & site photography. The network design activities include RF channel and antenna polarity planning, radio output power design, transmission line design, and other radio configuration settings
