DAS & BDA Services Across Arkansas

Modern buildings can create significant challenges for wireless and radio signals.

Concrete, steel, low-E glass, underground areas, stairwells, mechanical spaces, elevators and other structural elements can weaken signals and create coverage gaps inside a facility.

For public safety personnel, those gaps can become much more than an inconvenience.

AVC provides the engineering, testing and system capabilities needed to evaluate in-building coverage and, when required, design and deploy systems that improve radio communications inside the facility.

Our Arkansas capabilities include:

  • RF site surveys
  • RF grid testing and reporting
  • Public Safety DAS
  • Emergency Responder Communication Enhancement Systems (ERCES)
  • Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) systems
  • Cellular DAS
  • Cellular signal boosters
  • Industrial BDA and DAS
  • iBwave engineering
  • System design
  • Permit processing
  • System installation
  • Acceptance testing
  • BDA and DAS testing
  • System maintenance
  • System upgrades
  • Carrier relations
  • FCC licensing

Public Safety DAS & ERCES Across Arkansas

Help Emergency Responders Communicate Inside Your Building

Firefighters, police officers and other emergency responders depend on their radios to communicate throughout a building during an emergency.

Unfortunately, radio coverage that works outside a structure does not necessarily work everywhere inside it.

An Emergency Responder Communication Enhancement System (ERCES) is designed to improve public safety radio coverage within areas of a building where the signal does not meet applicable requirements.

AVC helps Arkansas property owners, developers, contractors and facility teams determine where coverage problems exist and develop an appropriate solution when enhancement is required.

Arkansas RF Site Surveys & Grid Testing

Don’t Guess About In-Building Coverage. Test It.

Determining whether a building needs a public safety radio enhancement system starts with understanding actual RF performance throughout the structure.

AVC performs professional RF site surveys, grid testing and coverage reporting to identify areas where radio signals meet requirements and locations where coverage may be inadequate.

Testing can help establish:

  • Existing public safety radio signal strength
  • Areas of insufficient coverage
  • Building areas requiring further evaluation
  • Baseline RF conditions
  • Information needed for system design
  • Documentation required during the compliance and approval process

For existing buildings, renovations and new construction projects, early testing can help identify coverage issues before they become larger project problems.

DAS System Design, Engineering & Permitting

A successful DAS or ERCES project requires more than selecting a BDA and installing antennas.

The system must be engineered around the building, RF environment, applicable public safety frequencies, local requirements and the needs of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).

AVC provides professional system design and engineering capabilities, including iBwave engineering services, to develop systems around the specific requirements of each facility.

Our team can assist with:

RF Analysis
Evaluate the existing radio environment and identify coverage deficiencies.

System Design
Develop the DAS/BDA architecture, equipment requirements and antenna distribution needed for the facility.

iBwave Engineering
Use professional RF design tools to model and document in-building wireless systems.

Permitting
Assist with documentation and permit processing associated with the project.

AHJ Coordination
Work through applicable requirements and testing procedures associated with the local jurisdiction.

Installation
Professionally install the approved system and associated infrastructure.

Testing & Commissioning
Test system performance and provide required coverage documentation.
