Engineers from the Epic Solutions lab in Rolling Meadows, Illinois have made a number of new SDR modules available, which have proven quite helpful to area businesses. Firms that are trying to develop RF-based sensors have traditionally had to do all of that work in-house. That can be extremely difficult for companies that don’t have established departments dedicated to hardware development.
It also tends to duplicate effort, since each firm has to make their own devices without communicating with engineers who work for other organizations. Specialists from Epiq Solutions have come up with a way to integrate sophisticated RF technology into a single wafer. Technicians simply have to plug this card into their units and interface with it via a standardized piece of software.
Once they do, they’ll be able to select communications channels for use with whatever sensors they have the equipment hooked up to. Industrial and commercial sensor gear that has to pass packets on a regular basis can do so without fear of interfering with any other piece of wireless gear. In cases where it’s necessary to operate a number of sensors next to each other, it’s fully possible to select several frequencies are that nowhere near one another in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Considering that these devices can support transmissions on channels as high as 6,000MHz, there’s no reason why individual frequencies would ever elude operators. That’s helping to further increase their popularity in a variety of markets.
