Site Surveys & Predictive Coverage From Prairie Mobile
When designing reliable communication systems, Prairie Mobile Communications starts with facts. We provide on-the-ground data, integrate software-backed predictions, and gain a deep understanding of operational needs. Our industry-standard site surveys and advanced predictive coverage modeling ensure every solution we deliver is built for performance, reliability, and long-term success.
Whether you’re building a two-way radio network, enhancing Wi-Fi coverage, or deploying a Distributed Antenna System (DAS), it all starts with building a deeper understanding of your environment.
Why Site Surveys Matter
SITE SURVEYS UNCOVER HIDDEN BLIND SPOTS IN COVERAGE
A site survey is more than just walking through a building. It’s a detailed, boots-on-the-ground assessment of your facility’s physical structure, RF (radio frequency) behavior, and potential interference. We evaluate wall materials, equipment obstructions, coverage gaps, and more, because even minor issues can create major communication failures.
For operations-critical environments, where dropped signals can mean lost productivity or missed emergency calls, site surveys are of tremendous value. They help us eliminate blind spots and prevent lost communications before they have a chance to occur. This gives your team the assurance of smooth communications throughout the coverage area.
Is your communications infrastructure ready to perform?
What Is Predictive Coverage Modeling?
MAPPING SYSTEM COVERAGE BEFORE ACTUAL DEPLOYMENT
Not all design work needs to wait until walls are up and cables are pulled. Predictive coverage modeling lets us map out your communications coverage before deployment using powerful software tools like iBwave. These models simulate how radio waves will travel throughout your site, factoring in wall composition, ceiling height, floor layouts, and known sources of interference.
Think of it like a digital crystal ball for your radio, Wi-Fi, or DAS system. With predictive modeling, we can test different equipment layouts, frequencies, and antenna placements to identify the most efficient and cost-effective design before a single cable is laid. This approach saves time, avoids rework, and ensures your system is engineered with accuracy from day one.
Who Benefits from These Services?
ANY ORGANIZATION THAT CAN’T AFFORD DOWNTIME
