10 Commandments of Wireless Communications
1. Thou shall know thy dBm and recall thy high school logarithms.
2. Covet not high frequencies - as the lower the frequency, the more forgiveth the laws of physics and propagation.
3. Honor thy receive sensitivity - as long-range performance is not a function of transmit power alone.
4. Thou shalt be wary of radio noise and recognize situations whereth radio noise may hamper thine installation.
5. Thou shalt always know thine fade margin - lest ye have a wireless link that worketh not in rain, snow, or the presence of interference.
6. Thou shalt use thine given powers of mathematics and logic when specifying wireless equipment.
7. Thou shalt not allow leafy greens or mounds of earth between thine antennas; and thou shalt elevate thy antennas towards the heavens; and thou shalt never, ever, attempt a system at the manufacturer’s maximum advertised distance.
8. Antennas
9. Cable loss
10. Thou shalt recognize the issues of latency and packetization before thou issueth purchase orders.
