JAG RF provides full and comprehensive antenna and filter system planning. We start by getting input from our customer about what frequencies they have been assigned by Industry Canada or the FCC. We then record all gain and loss values that are desired by the customer. If the customer has site information such as available rack space, systems already in place, and shelter internal dimension that information is noted as well. With this information we begin with a basic flow chart approach to look at possible permutations of the antenna and filter configuration.

The next step entails JAG RF to conduct rough calculations on system permutations using products from a number of manufactures. Things like cables losses, filter losses, minimum frequency separations, power handling capacities, and shielding percentages are compared against different manufactures to determine the most efficient combination. At this point several rough layouts are presented to the customer outlining the benefits and weaknesses along with cost for each system design.

Once the customer has decide on a design concept, JAG RF will then draft engineering drawings of the each site layout along with isometric drawings detailing filter configurations and antenna positions.

If requested by the customer, JAG RF can run basic computer simulations of their antenna and filter system in conjunction with the radio equipment, power setting and frequencies being used using. Simulations can predict possible coverage with additional topography information from the customer. If extensive information is provided to JAG RF about all systems at a given site such as roof top antenna farms, predictions can be made about possible IM problems.
