Precision RF Engineering
At the core of our work is the precision engineering, modeling, and optimization of FM broadcast signals. We rely on advanced LTE, broadcast, and SFN simulation platforms paired with the latest geospatial datasets, including high-resolution building heights, terrain, vehicular traffic patterns, and demographic layers.
High-Resolution Modeling Backed by Real-World Validation
Our engineers develop site-specific propagation models validated against drive-test measurements. Every design incorporates full Fresnel-zone analysis, including complex sub-path calculations that account for diffraction (2D and 3D), ducting, scattering, and reflections. Combined with high-resolution cartography, this process routinely delivers a standard deviation of less than 3 dB between predicted and measured signal strength.
These capabilities form the technical foundation for deploying synchronized Single-Frequency Networks (SFNs) and Geo-Targeted systems with exceptional accuracy and reliability.
Interference Elimination
Improving FM Audio Quality and Removing Unwanted Interference
Deploying MaxxCasting™ nodes not only strengthens signal levels in historically weak areas, it also eliminates problematic interference from adjacent or distant co-channel signals. As the FM band becomes increasingly congested with translators, boosters, and HD subchannels, interference elimination is no longer optional; it’s essential.
Tools Engineered for Precision
GeoBroadcast Solutions utilizes advanced measurement systems such as the Octave Nomad, both in controlled lab environments and in the field.
In the lab, Nomad allows us to simulate vehicular conditions, including speed-based fading effects, without the need for physical drive testing.
In the field, Nomad identifies interference sources such as second-adjacent channel problems and other HD-related noise. Its automated adjacent-channel scanning provides fast, clear before-and-after comparisons that verify system improvements with measurable proof.
Before & After Interference Examples
These measurement-driven insights allow us to tune coverage, eliminate interference, and deliver a cleaner, stronger, more consistent listening experience across the entire service area.
