RF Site Surveys

Comprehensive pre-deployment assessments using advanced propagation modeling and real-world measurements. We identify coverage gaps, interference sources, and optimal antenna placement before installation begins.

The Foundation

Every successful deployment starts with an accurate site survey.

Without Proper Surveys

  • Dead zones discovered after expensive installation
  • Unforeseen interference from existing systems
  • Over-provisioned equipment wasting budget
  • Costly remediation and re-installation

With Professional Surveys

  • 100% coverage guarantee from day one
  • Interference mitigation planned in advance
  • Optimized equipment list (no waste)
  • First-time-right deployment

Our Process

Multi-phase assessment methodology.

Phase 1: Pre-Survey Planning

We begin with detailed facility documentation, including building blueprints, construction materials, ceiling heights, and operational workflows. This informs our propagation modeling.

  • Architectural drawing analysis
  • Material propagation coefficient determination
  • Coverage requirements mapping

Phase 2: Spectrum Analysis

On-site RF spectrum analysis across all relevant bands to identify existing interference sources, noise floors, and spectral occupancy patterns.

  • Wide-band spectrum sweeps (300 MHz - 6 GHz)
  • Interference source identification and localization
  • Noise floor and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) mapping

Phase 3: Propagation Modeling

3D ray-tracing propagation models simulate RF coverage based on building geometry, materials, and antenna placement options. We identify optimal configurations before any hardware is purchased.

  • 3D building model creation
  • Ray-tracing propagation simulation
  • Coverage heatmap generation (RSRP, RSRQ, SINR)

Phase 4: Field Measurements

Walk-through measurements using calibrated RF test equipment to validate propagation models and capture real-world path loss, multipath effects, and material attenuation.

  • Drive/walk testing with professional equipment
  • GPS-tagged signal strength measurements
  • Model calibration and validation
