Telemedicine and mobile radio

The digitization of healthcare is progressing inexorably. The COVID 19 pandemic has given it an additional boost. In Germany, too, more and more people are now using telemedicine solutions. As an electronic form of medical care, telemedicine enables location-independent communication between patients and doctors, but also between doctors themselves. For telemedical services to function reliably, nationwide coverage with high-performance mobile communications is essential.

Radio Holes – Current Situation and Efforts to Eliminate Them

As a result of increasing digitization, companies and citizens alike are dependent on stable network coverage. Locations with poor mobile network coverage, known as dead spots, are a major nuisance for those affected. Germany is still a long way from complete nationwide coverage. In rural areas in particular, there is often a lack of stable mobile communications connections and fast Internet.

WiFi 6E: Fast WiFi in the 6 GHz frequency band

For many years, little has happened in the WLAN sector with regard to the usable frequency spectrum. The two frequency bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz seemed to be set in stone. Wi-Fi 6E now makes the 6 GHz frequency band usable for WLAN devices. The Federal Network Agency released the 6 gigahertz band for Germany in 2021. In the following article, you will learn what is behind the designation Wi-Fi 6E, what innovations the standard brings with it, and which applications will particularly benefit from Wi-Fi 6E.

Wireless M-Bus: Use in the energy industry

The digitization of the energy industry is the basis for intelligent energy management and thus also for the energy transition. A basic building block here is the intelligent recording of heat, water, electricity and gas consumption data. This so-called smart metering requires modern measurement technology and corresponding transmission technologies.

Installation of smart metering systems: Success in 6 steps with the LTE network tester!

The Metering Point Operation Act provides for the replacement of all analog electricity meters with modern metering devices or intelligent metering systems (iMSys) by 2032. IMSys are digital electricity meters that are connected via mobile communications in the Internet of Things to the metering point operators' control centers and to other devices in the electricity grid. They can transmit and receive data and automatically send the status of the electricity meter to the operator.

10 good reasons for mobile metering when installing smart metering systems

The rollout of smart metering systems is currently in full swing in Germany. The Metering Point Operation Act, which came into force in 2016, stipulates that all analog electricity meters are to be replaced by modern metering equipment or intelligent metering systems (iMSys) by 2032. Metering point operators are responsible for this conversion to "smart metering" and the installation of the new meters.
