RF Site Survey

It is imperative that a Wireless Network is designed to suit the building it is in and to cope with the amount of data traffic in any area.  Mobexx provides a site survey service that guarantees performance coverage and bandwidth.

A wireless site survey is a physical survey of the premises where the wireless network will be installed. A survey identifies optimal locations to place access points so the network can provide 100% wireless coverage, and maximum performance within designated area.

When considering the use of wireless equipment, it is extremely difficult to predict the propagation of radio waves and detect the presence of interfering signals without the use of specialised test equipment. Even with omni-directional antennas, radio waves do not travel the same distance in all directions. Walls, doors, lift shafts, people, and other obstacles offer varying degrees of attenuation, which cause the radio frequency (RF) radiation pattern to be irregular and unpredictable. As a result, an RF site survey should be performed to understand fully the behaviour of radio waves within a facility before installing any wireless devices.

The goal of an RF site survey is to gather enough information and data to determine the number and placement of access points that will provide the coverage required. Coverage required usually means the support of a minimum data rate in a given area. An RF site Survey will also detect the presence of radio interference coming from other sources that could degrade the performance of the wireless LAN.

The need and complexity of an RF site survey will vary depending on the size of the facility and the work that is to be accomplished. A site survey is a good idea for the use of any wireless device because without a survey, users could end up with inadequate coverage and suffer from low performance in some areas. The purchase of wireless equipment is no small expenditure, so it is best not to leave any portion of the project up to chance.

Our team of engineers use the latest analysers and advanced software survey tools to produce a detailed report that graphically illustrates Wireless coverage and bandwidth and includes photographs detailing installation criteria.
