Greenville, NC August 24, 2011 – Wireless technology integrator LBA Group, Inc. is offering an online OSHA-compliant RF awareness training course to help protect wireless industry workers from unhealthy levels of radio frequency. Developed in [...]  Recently, the FCC has levied fines totaling almost $40,000 on operators for infractions of FCC rules on RF safety, tower lighting, and site access. This may represent a new aggressiveness on the part of the FCC. In any event, it is a wakeup call to all tower and site operators to be vigilant in FCC [...]  Most engineers and operators in the wireless industry think of radio frequency (RF) safety as an exposure issue and often forget RF shock and burn that can be a concern for tower climbers and construction workers. Occupational safety and health are of prime importance in the workplace especially towers and structures that may be energized [...]  As wireless systems proliferate, the number one adversary of systems designers and service providers is interference. Interference hampers coverage and capacity, and limits the effectiveness of both new and existing systems. Interference is an inescapable fact when wireless communications systems must coexist in extremely complex environments. What is it about cellular towers that make people [...]  You have heard the old saying “splitting hairs” referring to arguing about very small differences or unimportant details. There is splitting hairs and then there is splitting cells – cell splitting to be exact and it is occurring all over the world as wireless service providers attempt to add ubiquitous coverage and more traffic capacity. [...]  Wireless Internet Service Providers Association The wireless phone industry has many buzzwords and “broadband” is no exception. In fact, broadband is misleading just as the term wireless can be confusing since there are many mediums and technologies that allow communications to exist without wires. The 2010 Broadband Expo was no exception to the buzzwords but [...]  Once known as Saigon, and now Ho Chi Minh City, the city at the heart of the southern part of Vietnam is now a bustling metropolis.

This is the second major multiplexer system LBA has furnished to BCC. The BCC site created a number of challenges. Site limitations required that the triplexer operate into an electrically short tower [...]  Some things never change but wireless and technology is constantly changing. The old ways of the Bell System are long gone. Those that embrace the right change will see opportunities. Change was at the fall meeting of the Carolina Wireless Association (CWA) in Raleigh. There were quite a few new faces this year since the [...]  Tranquility Base, here. The Eagle has landed. The Voice of America had the world’s largest audience ever when it reported in 46 languages man landing on the Moon. It earned trust when it reported on Watergate and the anti-Vietnam protests. In 1968, Czechs battled Soviet tanks in the streets. When Soviet troops forced a Czech [...]  After 15 years of burnishing his career in wireless communications, Christopher K. Horne has “come home” to LBA Group Inc. as the corporation’s new chief technical officer. He officially rejoined the Greenville firm today (Aug. 2).
