Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS)

From high-value asset tracking, IT management, and location-based security to Enhanced 911 services, asset management, and workflow automation, Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) can simultaneously track the physical location (within a few meters) of thousands of devices from within a WLAN infrastructure. 

Traditionally the province of proprietary RFID solutions, RTLS systems use Wi-Fi networks for applications such as location trending, rapid problem resolution, and RF capacity management, asset tracking, security and more.  While proprietary infrastructure based solutions such as Infrared, TDOA, and RFID come with high hardware infrastructure costs in the form of ID tags, reader gates and antennas, Wi-Fi RTLS systems leverage existing wireless networks while offering the same high levels of accuracy.

The demand for RTLS products, particularly in the healthcare vertical is red hot and continues strong growth.  Today, less than five percent of North American health care facilities are currently equipped with asset management systems.  However, generated revenues are expected to grow from the current market of $59 million to more than $839 million by 2012.

While the benefits of RTLS systems are significant, properly deploying these systems to provide the level of accuracy and reliability desired requires professional-grade wireless site surveys.  C3-Wireless offers the best combination of experience, tools, and training to successfully deploy advanced wireless networks capable of supporting RTLS systems.

Other Wireless Solutions
 

Wireless Voice over IP (wVoIP)

wVoIP systems are the "killer app" of wireless networking and offer enormous benefits.  However they are also one of the most demanding and difficult solutions to implement.  Systems such as Vocera or phones from Cisco or SpectraLink need stellar coverage and must also consider capacity issues.  Poorly implemented solutions result in unacceptable sound quality.  Too few access points can result in dead spots and dropped calls, while too many access points can cause co-channel interference...

 

Mission-Critical Client\Server Applications

From healthcare to small business, the benefits of making applications mobile is obvious and highly desired.  In many cases, client-server applications originally written for wired (Ethernet) networks are ported to a wireless environment.  These applications are often "stateful," meaning they expect a constant connection.  This means unless the wireless network is extremely well-implemented, results will be inconsistent and often lead to the application crashing unexpectedly...

 

Manufacturing

Manufacturing is one of the verticals to benefit most from wireless networking. Materials handling, inventory and asset management using wands, scanners and imagers can significantly increase accuracy, efficiency and productivity.  However, due to the constantly changing environment, large amounts of highly absorptive and reflective material, heavy machinery and the need for high levels of mobility...
 

 

Wireless Bridge Links

Once an organization has grown to the point of needing connectivity between multiple buildings, providing reliable and affordable data throughput becomes a challenge.  Monthly charges from poor performing dedicated leased lines make implementing a direct link highly attractive.  However, the cost of running fiber or other wired solution is often cost prohibitive, making a wireless bridge link an viable alternative.  Because these backbone links must be highly reliable, the need for a well-implemented wireless network is critical...
 
 

Education

From K-12 to college campuses, laptops have become commonplace with students and teachers.  Whether for Internet access across an entire campus, or connectivity for client-server applications, wireless networking has become a fixture for education, in lieu of enduring the expense and disruptiveness of physically cabling the facilities...

 

Hotels/Hospitality

From 5-star resorts to budget hotels, guests expect nothing less today than Internet connectivity.  To remain competitive, hotels must offer this service in not only their conference rooms, but throughout the entire facilities.  Wireless networks make this possible in an affordable way, without the burden of wiring every room.  Designing these systems to provide the required coverage and reliability needed can be achieved on almost any budget...

 

Indoor and Outdoor Mesh

Mesh networks replace the standard wired backhaul to connect access points together with a wireless connection and offer self-healing and dynamic route optimization capabilities to offer a simple and cost-effective solution for deployment.  Outdoor wireless Mesh solutions allow government agencies to minimize capital, deployment, and operational expenses when deploying high-performance broadband to improve services for employees and local residents.

 

Government and Military

Government and Military organizations see numerous benefits from wireless networks.  Implementations have unique restrictions such as FIPS 140.2 security standards, etc. that require careful navigation from knowledgeable professionals to ensure regulatory compliance.  With numerous references from organizations such as the Dept. of Energy, Dept. of Agriculture, and the US Army Reserve, we can ensure successful and reliable implementations.

 

Custom Solutions

What happens when a $60 million home built like a castle needs a wireless network that provides the most advanced and challenging services, including wVoIP, Real-time Location Tracking, and home automation, all while being invisible to the users?  The builders turn to wireless experts to pull off the near-impossible.  Find out more about the process behind this solution and others...
