What are fixed radio communications?
Fixed radio communications provide communications between certain fixed points. In this case, a transmitter located at a particular point communicates with one or more receivers located at certain points. Possibilities of application of fixed radio communications are very wide, incl.:
- connections between public mobile base stations;
- transmission of TV and radio programs from studios to a broadcast transmitter;
- connection of nodes in private or corporate communications networks, including provision of Internet services;
- operational services communications;
In Latvia, radio frequency spectrum from 2 GHz to 86 GHz is used for fixed wireless communications
There are several factors to consider when planning a radio line and choosing frequency bands:
- the length of the planned line
- required data transfer speed
- availability of radio frequencies spectrum at a particular location
- availability of equipment and their compliance with regulatory enactments
- weather conditions (intensity of precipitation in the specific region)
- and others.
