Optimizing Wireless Performance

Range performance of the Intuicom 900MHz Spread Spectrum Wireless Data Radio network
can be greatly improved by optimizing the radio location and antenna setup. Height is
everything. If the RTK Bridge and antenna setup can be located at a high-point that
improves line of sight between its antenna and rover units, the performance can be greatly
improved. It may even be desirable to locate the unit farther away, but at a higher location.
Key factors affecting wireless performance:
1) Location and height – In general locating the unit as high as possible and/or using a mast
for the broadcast antenna can greatly improve wireless performance.
