How Emergency Broadcast Systems Stay Online When Everything Else Fails Since 1963, many Americans grew up with a television or radio broadcast being interrupted every week by the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) or the Emergency Alert System (EAS). The same could be said for Canadians who have had their Alert Ready system since 2015, as
How TX RX Supports Full-Spectrum Disaster Response In times of disaster, whether natural or manmade, communication networks serve as the lifeblood of emergency response efforts, as first responders require reliable, clear, and instantaneous communication to prevent chaos. TX RX Systems supports and provides the necessary infrastructure needed during such moments. Our equipment lineup, including antennas,
How DAS Monitoring Works Whether we know it or not, we encounter distributed antenna systems (DAS) every day; in office buildings, hospitals, and stadiums. Levi’s Stadium alone operates over 700 DAS antennas to ensure 70,000 spectators stay connected. There are many different factors to take into account to guarantee consistent performance. Not only do these
The Role of DAS Monitoring for Rapid Deployments in Disaster Zones Disasters destroy infrastructure and disrupt communication; they leave emergency teams struggling to stay connected. But when hurricanes, wildfires, and earthquakes hit; networks fail. Cell towers collapse. Power lines go down. Public networks overload as thousands try to reach loved ones. Without a way to
Restoring Emergency Communication in 72 Hours: Rapid Deployment When It Matters Most The first 72 hours after a disaster determine whether emergency teams can take control or struggle through confusion and delays. When infrastructure fails, response efforts become much harder to manage. Power lines collapse. Fiber optic networks are severed. Cellular towers go offline. First
AI for Disaster Prediction and Response: Can It Improve Our Understanding of Climate Crisis Scenarios? Communities are more vulnerable than ever. The frequency—not to mention the growing severity—of disasters like wildfires, hurricanes, and floods is placing enormous stress on emergency response systems. These systems are demanding better solutions. Lives depend on it. The stakes are
Open Standards that Drive RF and LMR Innovation Open standards are the bedrock of modern communication. They promote interoperability and enable rapid innovation across industries. In the fields of radio frequency (RF) and land mobile radio (LMR), open standards make sure devices and networks from different manufacturers operate seamlessly together. They create flexibility, ensure security,
Predicting and Managing Network Traffic with Machine Learning in Telecom With 94.6% of Americans accessing just the internet daily, telecom companies and service providers have to manage more complex systems. The advent of 5G and the growing number of connected devices necessitate more advanced tools for handling network traffic, optimizing resources, and enhancing reliability. To
How RF Technology Will Enable 6G As the world of telecommunications sets its sights on the deployment of 6G, the demands placed on RF technology are ballooning exponentially. 6G promises unprecedented data rates, lower latency, and significantly enhanced connectivity. Wireless infrastructures will be central to its success. The goals for Terabit-per-second (Tbps) communication by 2030
RF Communication Hardware and Services for First Responders First responders are the backbone of any emergency response. In order to do their jobs, they–police, fire, and medical personnel–rely on resilient communications hardware like radio frequency (RF) communication systems like Land Mobile Radios (LMRs). These systems ensure that first responders can operate efficiently, regardless of the
