Distributed Antenna System

 Distributed antenna system  

Distributed antenna system offers prime solution for wider wireless coverage through the splitting of antennas in the necessary geographical area. Usually smaller antennas connected with CAT5, Fiber or Coax cables; replace a single antenna with higher power consumption. The installation of a distributed antenna system has more to offer over the conventional system. The entire process of installation needs to be carried out with a systematic approach. Understanding the necessity of components involved is essential to identify the required network architecture. In addition to this, factors like location of coverage, number of users, and aesthetic approach are important and service providers offer complete solution after survey of the site of the proposed installation.
 
  The distributed antenna system can also be configured on two prime parameters. The first one is the number of users and the latter is the geographical coverage. In fact, this service can support many wireless providers depending on the requirements. The best part of the installation is the customization factor. Usually, no two organizations have common requirements. Thus, opting for an ideal solution is easy and economical due to individual computation of requirements. Advantages of distributed antenna system are seamless and offer a reliable solution for all enterprise needs.
 Today's modernized milieu needs optimum wireless solutions to serve a large number of users. However, deployment of complete wireless solutions has various factors under consideration. Factors like business process orientation, structural constraints, area of coverage, and layout are important in deciding the scope of wireless solutions. The perfect installation begins with good planning and a survey. These processes help to understand the basic requirements and enable perfect computing of radio parameters. These parameters are crucial in delivering excellent performance. Usually outdoor wireless networking hardware is always vulnerable to hazardous climatic changes; good installations also need to consider the safety of hardware
. Wireless solutions are integrated to achieve objectives like service enhancements, cost reductions, and more opportunities to generate revenue. However, the entire process needs to be documented for clear vision. Some aspects like scalability, data security, thin clients, ease of use, portability of application, effective power management, and the least data transmission needs during the usual course of operation need to be considered and implemented. In some cases, your installation should have a provision for backward compatibility. Consideration of all these factors finally sums up to a state of the art networking solution. 

 “80% of all wireless traffic happens indoors but existing DAS solutions reach their capacity limitations and face operational challenges because of analogue distribution of the RF signal,” said Michael Frankle, CEO at Ubidyne. “With the Ubidyne digital DAS platform, system and antenna vendors can now upgrade their solutions to meet growing capacity demands. Already, countries such as the US, Korea and Japan and some European regions where LTE is being deployed and where mobile broadband traffic is growing exponentially, are running out of capacity in hot-spots.”

  DAS system can be connected with a high capacity small cell, also based on its platform architecture. Finally, the digital architecture enables future-proofed cooperative antenna solutions with distributed MIMO for high capacity hot-spots.
“A majority of operators are using distributed antennas in their mobile networks for coverage, and despite all the talk about using small cells to boost capacity in large venues, operators we interviewed believe DAS will remain a fundamental tool for malls, airports, stadiums and the like,” asserts Stephan teral, principal analyst for mobile infrastructure and carrier economics at Infonetics Research, author of a recent survey which found that 80% of respondent operators currently use DAS in their cellular networks for coverage optimization.Wireless solutions are the only option available in today's dynamic world when you need to serve a large number of users.
