The actual number of applications for
which a radio-based outstation can be utilised is simply too vast to numerate.
The benefits to be gained from the use of a 'wireless' transmission media
between two (or more) points are enormous. The primary attraction of any radio
communication lies in the ability to send and receive information without the
need for costly inter-connecting wires, thereby offering the advantages of
mobility plus extended range of operation.
Dynamic Logic can take this one step
further by providing a self contained unit housing the outstation AND
radio module within a robust IP-65 rated enclosure. This ability makes the use
of radio links especially attractive to the industrial user, where the use of
wires or cables could prove a hindrance and even dangerous in certain
circumstances. The facility for adding to existing installations also
contributes to the overall cost effectiveness of the true 'wireless' solution
to communication problems.
Dynamic Logic can offer a number of
Radio options either internal or external to the outstation
including:
- Synthesised VHF or UHF transceivers which are approved to
ETSI standard EN 300 220-1 and can be used in all the European Community member
states (subject to national requirements).
- In
the UK the de-regulated bands designated MPT1328 (VHF) or MPT1329 (UHF) bands.
Any of 32 channels can be selected to avoid conflict with other
users.
-
Regulated (licensed band) MPT1411 of 457.5MHz to 458.5MHz and 463.0MHz to
464MHz at power levels up to 5W
The
UHF MPT1329 band is the most popular, since it allows for transmit powers of up
to 500mW ERP (Effective Radiated Power), but doesn't require a licence. There
are 32 channels at 12.5 KHz spacing, in the band 458.500MHz to 458.925MHz. The
radio range depends on the aerials used and the topography of the area, but
will typically be up to 7-8Km in urban environments and up to 20Km with
elevated aerials. The ERP must never be more than 500mW when using
MPT1329. |
