RadioFrame System
System Description
RFN_3.1 Beta 7
2 System Description
The RadioFrame Networks iDEN/802.11b solution generates RF within the
building using low-power transceivers that are placed as needed to meet
coverage and capacity requirements. The low-power nature of the transceivers
minimizes interference with the surrounding macrocell system so that the
macrocell system views the RFN iDEN/802.11b solution as a peer. The RFN
iDEN/802.11b solution is remotely monitored down to the component level,
including alarms and system performance, using a web-based interface.
The RadioFrame Networks iDEN/802.11 solution consists of the following four
systems:
• iDEN Interface
• RadioFrame System
• Power Plant
• Local Area Network
2.1 Functional Relationships
The following diagram depicts the components of each system in the
RadioFrame Networks iDEN/802.11 solution.
Figure 1 The RadioFrame Networks iDEN/802.11b solution consists of the iDEN
Interface, the RadioFrame System, a Power Plant, and the customer’s
Local Area Network.
