Our Principal Consultant has extensive Australian and international experience designing and deploying wireless to more than a dozen inter-modal container terminals around the world, where all manner of operations depend on the wireless network for the efficient movement, storage and tracking of containers. This includes dozens and sometimes hundreds of rugged vehicle mount mobile computers on-board the Rubber Tyre Gantry Cranes, Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes, Reach Stackers, Straddle Carriers and Prime Mover Trucks.

 

Having a broad amount of experience with designing, deploying and troubleshooting wireless implementations at more than a dozen container terminals around the world, Dynamic Wireless understands the unique constraints involved with designing and deploying outdoor wireless for inter-modal logistics environments, including: 

​

• Propagating RF signals in between the vast rows of containers which are 5 to 6 container stacks high.

• Reflection of the RF signals by the metal containers.

• Changing RF signal levels caused by the various inter-modal vehicles moving throughout the terminal.

• Best practice survey methods and thresholds when designing outdoor wireless in a container terminal environment.

• Recommendations on access point and antennas selection for achieving the desired wireless coverage design.

• Optimal mounting locations and mounting methods for access points and antennas atop towers and light rings.

• Unique constraints involved when installing access points and antennas outdoors atop 30-40 metre light-poles.

 

Our Inter-modal Experience Include:
 

• Design, implementation and surveying of wireless networks to shipping ports in the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Egypt, Bahrain, Morocco, Turkey, Ghana, Tanzania, South Africa and India.
