Spectrum Monitoring Setup: SAM–NAM Calibration

Spectrum Monitoring Setup: SAM–NAM Calibration Calibrating a SAM or NAM sweep is the only way to tie measurement to reality. Every value that follows, from the noise floor to the site’s interference profile, starts with a calibration signal and a properly adjusted offset. The sweep data is only as useful as the setup behind it.

How Tower Maintenance Data Feeds into Predictive Network Analytics

How Tower Maintenance Data Feeds into Predictive Network Analytics Every predictive model is only as accurate as the data it’s trained on. For radio frequency (RF) network performance, that data doesn’t come from behind a desk; it starts on the tower. A technician’s tower visit to a site isn’t just about tightening bolts or logging
