Technical Consulting & Training

Technical Consulting and Training

Through its vast levels of engineering, communications, and military experience, TSG is your partner in developing communication site surveys, which is a critical step in designing or deploying a reliable communication system. These surveys encompass the following areas:

Site and Environment:  Terrain,  obstructions, elevation, weather patterns, power availability and any underground or underwater communication needs.

Technology Feasibility and Coverage Testing:  RF line of sight analysis;  signal Attenuation, spectrum analysis;  satellite latency and bandwith;  mesh networks, node to node connectivity.

Security Evaluation:  Assess encryption standards and data handling protocols; determine need for air-gapped, end-to-end encrypted, or classified comms.

Equipment and Infrastructure:  Evaluate mounting options (towers, tripods, rooftops, poles); power sources (solar, battery generator, grid); backhaul options (fiber, microwave, satellite uplink); portability needs.  

Documentation and Recommendations: Heat maps; signal coverage maps, interference logs; RF noise reports; suggested tech stack and deployment plan.

Additionally, TSG offers red team quick reaction analysis/consulting of communications related problems.
