TransCore 05716 Manuel D’Utilisation

Appropriate for installations with the following requirements and conditions:

902 to 928 MHz operation

Exposure to harsh environments

Broad radiation pattern in one dimension, narrow in the other

Low antenna profile

Horizontal polarization

Appropriate for installations with the following requirements and conditions:

845 to 950 MHz operation

Exposure to harsh environments

Maximum coverage at close range (<20 ft [6.1 m])

Vertical or horizontal polarization

The following site layout and traffic flow considerations are critical when determining 
MPRR installation locations:

The MPRR read zone

Other MPRR units and antennas in the area

Reflection, refraction, and diffraction of RF signals 

Existing signal interference at the site

The MPRR must be able to read the tag data properly within a specified area, called 
the read zone, without reading other nearby tags or interfering with other MPRRs at 
the site. The following are some of the factors that affect the size and shape of the read 
zone:

Mounting method used for the antenna

Mounting location of the antenna

Height from the ground and mounting angle of the antenna
