When selecting a Gigabit Point-to-Point (PtP) wireless system for a demanding application like yours, several critical factors come into play. With requirements for short-range wireless transmission (under 250 feet), highly directional antennas, direct line of sight, minimal interference, and robust security, it’s essential to choose the right solution tailored to your needs.
Key Requirements for Your PtP Wireless System
-
Ultra-Short-Range, High-Focus PtP Wireless Antennas
-
Given your need for a focused beam and short range, highly directional, narrow-beam antennas are crucial. This ensures minimal interference from other wireless signals in a crowded urban environment.
-
-
Direct Line of Sight (LOS) Optimization for Urban PtP Networks
-
Since one antenna is stationary and the other moves vertically, your system should support dynamic alignment and beamforming to maintain a stable connection while in motion.
-
How much vertical movement will the remote antenna experience? This is a key factor in selecting the right PtP wireless technology and alignment solution.
-
-
Security & Interference Mitigation for Urban Wireless Links
-
Dense urban environments pose significant challenges due to high RF noise. Solutions with AES encryption, frequency hopping, and advanced interference mitigation technologies are ideal.
-
Licensed spectrum PtP solutions can also help avoid congestion compared to traditional unlicensed bands.
-
-
High-Speed Gigabit PtP Wireless Data Transfer (1 Gbps+)
-
For real-time video and file transmission, a gigabit-capable wireless PtP system is necessary. Technologies such as millimeter-wave (60 GHz, 70/80 GHz), 5 GHz WiFi-based PtP links, or fiber alternatives may be suitable.
-
-
Handling Close-Proximity PtP Antenna Placement
-
Since the two antennas may be within inches of each other at times, ensuring signal stability and avoiding self-interference is critical. Solutions with adaptive power control and beam steering can help manage this challenge effectively.
