Full Description

Many water distribution systems located in mountainous or hilly terrain can in fact install and obtain licenses from the FCC allowing cost effective radio telemetry and remote control of their distribution network. Conducting a computer analysis using USGS topographical data available on CD-ROM can yield reasonable results to predict and anticipate field problems and give a system integrator the necessary confidence to implement radio telemetry using peer-to-peer radio techniques avoiding costly repeaters, towers, additional unexpected hardware
