Large hub airports present unique environments for radio systems. For example:
- Airports are “ports” of entry with lots of mobile roaming traffic from very high densities of users.
- Terminals are large dispersed buildings over many floors containing underground and subway areas surrounded by securely controlled spaces.
- Baggage and aircraft stand systems may use unlicensed frequency bands for business critical applications alongside retail tenants with wireless point of sale equipment sharing the same bands.
- Numerous low power radio systems need to co-exist in close proximity to high power radar systems for detecting objects in the air and on the ground.
- High levels of security are required so that police and other security agencies need ubiquitous and reliable access to voice and data communications.
- Thousands of staff working for operational partners including ground handlers and caterers must be co-ordinated remotely and in real time
- Tens of thousands of airport assets from large vehicles to wheelchairs must be used efficiently
- Airport operators need to ensure that they take responsibility for ensuring RF Health and Safety for all staff, subcontractors and members of the public whilst on the airport.
B Consulting are experts in design, build and operation of complex airport radio systems. We understand how to ensure multiple radio technologies and users co-exist and how to guarantee that relevant ICNIRP limits are not exceeded so that health and safety responsibilities can be discharged.
