Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) for Mines, Tunnels and Buildings

Connectivity dead zones, unreliable radio range and dropped mobile phone calls are all symptoms of an absence of two-way radio or mobile communications within a space. That’s where Distributed Antenna Systems can help.

The above concern is not just an inconvenience for everyday two-way radio and mobile phone users; it can also affect life-saving communication to those who work in hazardous conditions such as mines, tunnelling systems, existing buildings and new construction projects.

Many authorities are now setting standards for connectivity and emergency responder coverage as a prerequisite for obtaining certificates of occupancy for new buildings.

One solution is the use of distributed antenna systems (DAS) and equipment which can also be very beneficial to the mining and tunnelling industries.

DAS for mines, tunnels, the water industry, and other industrial applications are an organization of strategically-placed antennas, coax, and splitters that provide radio frequency (RF) coverage within a structure or geological area that does not have adequate signal levels.

Radio Communication in Tunnels for the Water Industry

Within the water industry, ensuring adequate communication within challenging conditions such as tunnels and pipelines is essential for operational success. With much of the activities of a modern industrial water firm taking place underground, ensuring ongoing communications between workers can be a difficult obstacle to overcome. This is where the application of DAS communications equipment can become extremely useful as they allow for the flow of information between workers in places where there is no/low or unreliable signal. These systems result in radio communication in tunnels and other difficult environments becoming much more reliable.
