The face of health and elderly care has changed. Advancements in technology have revolutionized the way we communicate. Today there are wireless devices in patients’ rooms that send updates to the nurse’s station, doctors check diagnostic results and images on their iPads, remote video consultations bring key parties together more easily and emergency buttons provide peace of mind. Connectivity in the healthcare sector is pivotal in enhancing performance and ensuring patient comfort.

Instant, reliable and stable connectivity is fundamental. In everyday life, when this is not possible it can be frustrating. In care situations it can be critical.

For both health and elderly care the secure data exchange is paramount for efficient collaboration and improved care.

What medical data is exchanged?

This dependability is crucial for a wide range of data that is exchanged over the airwaves in a medical environment such as Patient Health Information (PHI) that contains sensitive details about a patient’s health, medical history, diagnoses, treatments, and medications. There are also Electronic Health Records (EHRs) containing comprehensive patient records where reliable and complete delivery ensures accurate information is shared and diagnoses are accurate as well as prescription ordering that requires secure communication to prevent errors and assist timely medication dispensing.

Strong connectivity in the healthcare sector also helps ensure the stable delivery of remote telemedicine consultations via video calls, voice calls, or chat sessions between healthcare providers and patients. It also aids clear communication for patients and their families which is essential during times of high stress and great worry.

Patients are taking greater ownership of their health too. As such they are seeking increased access to their personal data and leveraging consumer devices to further their health objectives. The result is a rapid rise in the amount of data that is being generated.

What happens if poor connectivity results in a communication breakdown?

Not only do breakdowns in communication add upset to already challenging times they can result in serious consequences for the patient’s safety and quality of care.

Communication failures during patient handoffs (such as shift changes or transfers to other departments) can lead to critical information being lost or miscommunicated. This can result in delayed diagnoses, incorrect treatments, or missed follow-up actions. Within a team of caregivers, breakdowns in communication can hinder effective collaboration while communication gaps between physician and consulting specialists can lead to fragmented care and suboptimal decisions or treatment plans.

Effective communication between healthcare providers and patients is essential. During virtual or telephone consultation, poor connectivity can hinder understanding. It is also vital for family members to be able to reach their loved ones.

In caring for the elderly, emergency buttons are often connected to a mobile phone. In these cases, a robust network is necessary to ensure a timely response.

The 5G treatment plan

The transition from 4G to 5G in healthcare offers numerous advantages, transforming patient care and medical operations. 5G’s lower latency and higher speeds enable real-time remote consultations, enhancing access to specialized care. Increased bandwidth and capacity empower seamless transmission of high-quality video for telemedicine and remote patient monitoring. The technology’s reliability and speed support streamlined healthcare operations, such as faster mobile unit communication and more connected devices in hospitals.

5G is better placed to support:

Remote Patient Monitoring: With 5G’s high speed and reliability, remote patient monitoring becomes more efficient. Real-time data transmission enables healthcare professionals to monitor patients from a distance, ensuring timely interventions and personalized care.
Augmented Reality Assisted Robotic Surgery: 5G’s low latency and high bandwidth facilitate augmented reality (AR) applications during surgery. Surgeons can access real-time imaging, overlaying critical information on their field of view, enhancing precision and safety.
Wearable Monitors: Wearable devices connected via 5G can continuously track vital signs, detect anomalies, and alert patients and healthcare providers. This promotes proactive self- care and early intervention.
Connected Ambulances: 5G enables seamless communication between ambulances, hospitals, and emergency responders.
High-quality video streaming and real-time data exchange enhance decision-making during critical situations.
High-quality video calling: Telemedicine and augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR) visualization in diagnosis and treatment is better supported by 5G.
Modernized network: 5G technology, equipped with specialized radios for indoor coverage, can meet the demands of nurse call systems, mobile charting, and other applications.

For patients, the benefits of an optimal connectivity in the healthcare sector include better self-care, reduced hospital stays, improved care quality, shorter wait times, and overall health improvements.

Current cures addressing poor connectivity in the healthcare sector

A number of technologies help enhance and boost connectivity such Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) which is a network of antennas connected to a common source and distributed throughout a building to extend coverage. These systems can be costly starting at 60.000 EUR and there are other considerations, for example in Belgium, DAS users have to enter a mid to long term legally binding contract to 1 operator and while it could work with several operators, local companies are reluctant to work with one another. They also require regular maintenance and power connection.

Another option is sensors or repeaters that amplify connectivity. They continually monitor WLAN performance and identify issues with interference, coverage, congestion or configuration. These are more affordable at 12.000 EUR but can meet regulatory pushback. In the Netherlands, it is illegal to place a passive antenna on the roof.

By Bernard Monville, Head of WAVE by AGC

Artificial Intelligence is on the lips of everyone at the moment and the exhibitors and attendees at MWC 24 were no exception.

One particularly engaging and inspiring talk was given by Tim Höttges, CEO of Deutsch Telekom. He stated: “Nothing has affected everyone, every business model, and the way we are operating and processing, more than AI”.

Endless Gains With AI

Research from Accenture has shown that with the same input productivity gains can be increased and output maximised by up to 37% when using AI.

But it is not just about cost savings. AI can help an operation to be more energy efficient, ensure higher quality, increase network stability, better harness predictive maintenance and enhance customer experience.

Mr Höttges stated there are endless gains in the ways customers can be served with AI. He explored how we can be takers, shapers, makers, and facilitators. You can be a taker by using what is there, you can be a maker by shaping what exists, you can then build using skills from AI and the cloud to become a facilitator.

Deutsch Telekom has established a competence center of 500 AI experts developing products that support smarter ways of working. When it comes to chatbots, AI has helped create more fluid conversations and better quality answers that has improved first call success by 50%. AI is helping answer employee HR questions, improve the productivity of fiber build out planning by as much as 75%, respond to external technician questions, identify network capacity demand, create energy savings, and identify malware.

AI is here to stay Mr Höttges concluded.

Growth Opportunities

It was also interesting to have greater discussions at MWC around the use of augmented reality demonstrations and see the growth opportunities for Open Radio Access Network (Open Ran) and private networks.

Open Ran is a network infrastructure that enables greater choice and flexibility in telecoms supply chains to help improve diversity in the supply chain. It allows suppliers to build and improve their networks using different bits of technology. A private network is secured and isolated from public internet. It allows authorised devices and apps to connect and exchange data with one another. Businesses often use private networks to create local area networks, which offer secure access within a defined geographic location. However, making a network private can be costly as well as complex to design and scale. While it is easy to add a device there still needs to be a dedicated infrastructure in place to support increasing demand.

Most providers of audit tools (Keysight, RS, Anritsu, …) and performance platform (OOKLA and opensignal) have extended their measurement capabilities to offer a global connectivity view for all technology. They now map 5G latency, WIFI6, and 4G and 5G signal strength to give a clear overview of the network capabilities. It is expected that this will ease the deployment of 5G use case.

Tackling challenges

However, there are challenges with using higher frequencies for mobile networks, as these signals have difficulty penetrating buildings. The market is actively exploring solutions such as installing repeaters or distributed antenna systems (DAS) in all buildings. Additionally, there is growing interest in utilizing millimeter wave (mmWave) bands to ensure high network capacity. Another area of interest is reconfigurable surfaces, with demonstrations of technologies like Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) being presented by companies such as NTT Docomo Lab and KT Telecom. These technologies aim to improve signal distribution both indoors and outdoors, as well as in transportation settings like aircraft.

In fact, Qualcomm presented on its booth how the capabilities of our WAVETHRU solution have been explored at its 5G mmWave technology testbed in San Diego. They investigated how it drives consistent connectivity. Using our easy-to-install retrofittable glass surface treatment solution the propagation of 5G mmWave technology was enabled in challenging areas.

The future of connectivity outside and inside buildings and in cities is something big players such as NTT are focusing their attention on. They are exploring the use of higher frequencies but these can be more difficult to evenly deploy. Signals can also be delivered and distributed via femtocells, RIS and internal DAS systems. AGC offers some versatile and effective options in the form of WAVETHRU and WAVEANTENNA.

Sustainable Steps

The works on developing WAVETRAP, the specialty glass, first started roughly 2.5 years ago. It was developed as a team

Discussed too, was network sustainability. GSMA, a global trade body representing mobile network operators, has taken significant steps toward promoting sustainability with the creation of the Sustainability Assessment Framework. Its primary purpose is to evaluate and understand operator efforts related to social and environmental sustainability within the mobile industry. The framework aims to provide a comparable and leading-edge assessment of sustainability practices. It examines the performance of mobile network operator (MNO) operations and considers their interactions with society. However, while it looks at data about BTS consumption there is no information on DAS or repeater consumption. This could present some exciting opportunities for our WAVETHRU solution.

All these topics, and more, featured in many of the conversations were had during our packed agenda of meetings at our dedicated desk in the Belgium pavilion. Attendees were keen to explore how our solutions including WAVETHRU, WAVEANTENNA, and WAVETRAP can help ensure consistent and reliable connectivity in increasingly technologically advanced environments.

Fewer things can be more fundamentally frustrating and business impacting than poor indoor connectivity.

Dropped or lost calls, slow download and upload speeds, trouble accessing messages, unhappy staff, disgruntled customers – the list of challenges operations face when struggling with troublesome connectivity can be extensive.

You are eager to fix the problem but are faced with the following worries:

Will my business be stopped for a long time or experience a high degree of disruption while the solution is being installed?
How do I fix the problem without my clients being impacted by noise and dust associated with a new system and intrusive cabling?

What are the available solutions and challenges?

A few key factors can impact indoor connectivity including today’s choice of façade or roof material used in energy efficient buildings that can prevent the signal from entering buildings. Glazing composed of a metal-based coating for thermal insulation can also play a role in blocking radiowaves.

Possible solutions for improving poor indoor connectivity include installing:

A Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) solution. This measures the rate at which energy is absorbed per unit mass by a human body when exposed to a radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic field.
Sensors that repeat or amplify connectivity. They continually monitor WLAN performance and identify issues with interference, coverage, congestion or configuration.
Distributed antenna systems (DAS). A network of antennas is connected to a common source and distributed throughout a building to extend coverage.

But these can be complex to integrate, require expensive hardware as well as entail maintenance and replacement costs. They also often only work for a single mobile operator and are often not scalable in all situations.

Presenting WAVETHRU: the perfect retroffitable solution for you!

A simpler, easier, and faster solution to increase mobile signal strength is the game-changing WAVETHRU by AGC. The retrofittable state-of-the-art technology for mobile indoor coverage enables radio-friendly glazing that reduces radio signal loss by 25 dB.

The process applies a unique laser pattern to the glazing with 30 µm laser engraved lines that are nearly invisible to the naked eye. Treatment is so gentle, it does not affect the physical properties of the glazing, which remain the same.

And it will blow all your worries away! WAVETHRU is quick to install, maintenance free, versatile, silent, clean, invisible, CO2 emission free, and lasts as long as the glass does. Just 20% to 30% of the window and floors 0 to 4 need to be treated to improve the indoor signal on all frequency ranges under 6GHz. This makes it a future-proof solution for 5G and there is no need to adapt the solution if new technology is introduced or the operator infrastructure changes.

As well as being added to existing glazing, WAVETHRU can be applied before glazing is installed in the case of new buildings or renovations to ensure optimal mobile connectivity.

With WAVETHRU, poor indoor connectivity can easily become a thing of the past enabling you and your clients to focus fully on business success.

The evolutionary impact of the pandemic, combined with the continuing shift towards flexible and remote work patterns and the proliferation of start-ups, have significantly influenced demand for adaptable workplace solutions with optimized mobile connectivity.

Coworking is becoming one of the fastest growing industries – as of June 2022, over 28,000 coworking spaces existed around the world. This figure is expected to reach 41,975 by the end of this year. Asia Pacific was the largest region in the coworking space market, followed by North America.

A coworking space helps employees replicate that sense of community they may be missing in the virtual workplace. It is shared by individuals or companies who rent from the property owner. Unlike a traditional office rental, the use of related services/equipment such as office chairs and desks, internet/Wi-Fi connection, hardware and software is included.

However, some connectivity issues can arise from the number of businesses and volume of people working in the same space. With 70% to 80% of calls carried out within a building, ensuring reliable mobile connectivity is vital.

Here are five signs your co-working space needs to improve its mobile connectivity:

1. Poor Call Quality

Either you can’t hear the other person or they can’t hear you. This can be very frustrating and ultimately affect the professional image you want to convey. If it is an especially busy workspace background noise will only be more distracting.

2. Signal loss

Calls that get cut-off can be very disruptive to the flow of the conversation. They can also be a way for people to cut short a meeting before a conclusion has been reached, They can potentially slow down sales, progress and action.

3. Difficulty in responding via WhatsApp or Messenger

An unreliable signal can result in missed messages or communications not being sent. Both can have a negative impact on the way you work and how your business progresses.

4. Problems downloading photos and videos

We receive information in all sorts of formats that are essential to our work. When we can’t immediately retrieve vital data that can be very detrimental.

5. Poor connectivity

In some cases, this can result in callers having to go out of the building to have a consistently strong connection or make a payment. Today’s communications have evolved to support smooth and fast operations. When poor signal strength interferes with that regularly, the impact can be far reaching.

Bridging the gap: the frequency challenge

As we developed in a previous blog, the shift to higher frequencies allows for more data capacity and the management of more users but comes at a cost. Higher frequencies struggle to penetrate obstacles like façade, windows or dividing walls or leading to reduced indoor coverage.

WiFi technology has enjoyed several iterations, from 2.4 GHz (Gigahertz) to 5 GHz, and now even 6 GHz with WiFi 6E. In the cellular world, 4G networks operate around 700 MHz to 2.5 GHz frequencies, and 5G goes even higher, including millimeter-wave frequencies up to 100 GHz. While these higher frequencies enable blazing-fast data speeds and low latency, they face the same challenge as WiFi – difficulty penetrating building materials.

Elevating indoor mobile connectivity with radio-friendly glazing?

To overcome connectivity issues in the office, more antennas are needed to optimize coverage. Or the antennas in place are required to handle a greater workload which can reduce latency. This increases costs, can be unsightly and finding a suitable location can be challenging.

Fortunately, there are relatively affordable and easy ways to upgrade mobile connectivity for the coworking space operator that is expected to provide good coverage.

WAVETHRU from Wave by AGC is a multi-operator solution that maximizes call quality by ensuring:

• A stronger signal with improved call quality indoors and the ability to manage multiple frequencies.

• Better end-user experience as phones consume less power for a longer battery life.

• Easy installation as the treatment is applied on-site to existing windows and non-intrusive as there are no wires.

• No impact on building aesthetics or double glazing performance as it is invisible to building occupants.

• Cost effectiveness as there is no need for obtrusive or unsightly systems (DAS comparison) and zero maintenance is required.

• Sustainability as the treatment has a long life, does not require energy and the glass can be recycled. The process also does not affect the glazing insulation or thermal performance.

Overcome poor call quality with a clear solution to greater connectivity

Poor call quality, weak signals or calls being lost or dropping out.

These are just some of the issues we are increasingly having conversations about with clients in large buildings who are experiencing frustrating problems with mobile phone reception and connectivity.

This is because more and more buildings are using metal in all kinds of unexpected areas.

The issue is something that Cynthia van Vroenhoven, Business Development AGC Nederland, explored when she appeared on De Wereld van Glas.

She detailed how AGC supports clients like Silversquare, Brussels, with improving their connectivity and indoor call quality with WAVETHRU from WAVE by AGC. The glass solution for a stable network improves connectivity and strengthens phone signals withan aesthetically pleasing glass surface treatment. More signal enters the building, resulting in improved communication between the base station and the phone.

Cynthia shared how the process begins with a free quick scan of every window. It analyses what the problem is, where it is, and which is the most pressing requirement.

It assesses for 2G, 3G, 4G & 5G reception and considers the requirements of technology that will follow to ensure everything futureproofed.

WAVETHRU is very affordable, as there is no need to treat everything – just the windows that are creating the most interference. Its installation is also disruption free as the offices can remain open and everyone can continue to work.

So, if any of these connectivity frustrations apply to your office or workspace (like poor call quality) talk to us to see how we can deliver quick and cost-effective clarity.

Impact of Radio waves: in this study, conducted by Ghent University and IMEC, we set out to prove that WAVETHRU is good for the health since it reduces the quantity of radio waves absorbed by mobile users inside buildings.

If you’re struggling with poor mobile signal strength in your office building, you may have considered using a traditional signal booster. While signal boosters can be effective in some cases, they may not be the best solution for modern office buildings. In this blog post, we’ll explore why traditional mobile signal boosters might not be the best solution for your office building and what alternative solutions you should consider.

The limitations of traditional mobile signal boosters

Traditional mobile signal boosters work by amplifying the existing cellular signal. They typically consist of an external antenna that captures the signal from the nearest cell tower, an amplifier that boosts the signal, and an internal antenna that broadcasts the amplified signal throughout the building. While signal boosters can be effective in some situations, they have several limitations that make them less suitable for modern office buildings.

Limited coverage area

One of the biggest limitations of traditional signal boosters is their limited coverage area. Signal boosters can only amplify the signal within a certain range, which means that they may not be effective in larger office buildings or buildings with multiple floors. In addition, signal boosters may not work in areas with weak or no cellular signal, which means that they may not be effective in all situations.

Interference issues

Signal boosters can also cause interference issues, especially if they are not installed properly. They can interfere with other wireless signals in the building, such as Wi-Fi, and can also interfere with signals from nearby cell towers. This interference can lead to poor call quality, dropped calls, and other issues.

Cost

Traditional signal boosters can be expensive, especially if you need to install multiple boosters to cover a larger area. In addition, signal boosters may require ongoing maintenance and upgrades to ensure that they are functioning properly.

Installation time

Installing a mobile signal booster can take a long time, especially if you have to wait for the mobile operator to install it. This can cause significant delays and disrupt your business operations, which can be frustrating and costly.

Limited compatibility

Traditional mobile signal boosters typically work only for one mobile operator. This means that if you have multiple mobile operators in your office building, you would need to install separate signal boosters for each operator. This can be costly and inefficient, especially if you have a large office building.

Wiring and installation

Installing a mobile signal booster requires significant wiring and installation work. This can be disruptive to your business operations and require additional resources and expertise.

Incompatibility between Mobile Signal Boosters and modern building materials

Modern office buildings are often constructed with materials that can block mobile signals, such as energy-efficient windows and metal cladding. Traditional mobile signal boosters may not be effective in these types of buildings, which can lead to poor signal strength.

Considering these limitations, it’s essential to consider alternative solutions like WAVETHRU, a laser surface treatment that can improve mobile signal strength in your office building without the need for bulky signal boosters or complicated installations. WAVETHRU is also compatible with all national mobile operators, making it a more flexible and cost-effective solution compared to traditional signal boosters.

Alternative solutions to improve mobile signal strength

Instead of relying on traditional signal boosters, there are several alternative solutions that you should consider to improve mobile signal strength in your office building.

WAVETHRU alternative to Mobile Signal Boosters

Laser surface treatment

A laser surface treatment like WAVETHRU is a cost-effective and efficient solution for improving mobile signal strength in your office building. It works by removing the metal coating on windows that can block mobile signals from entering the building. With a laser surface treatment, you can enjoy better mobile connectivity without having to rely on bulky signal boosters or repeaters.

Wi-Fi calling

If your office building has a reliable Wi-Fi network, consider using Wi-Fi calling. This feature allows you to make calls over a Wi-Fi network instead of using the cellular network. It can help you avoid dropped calls and poor call quality, especially if you’re in an area with weak mobile signal strength.

Contact your mobile service provider

If you’re experiencing poor mobile connectivity in your office building, contact your mobile service provider. They may be able to offer you a solution, such as a repeater or a signal booster. However, keep in mind that these solutions may only work for one mobile operator, and may not be as cost-effective as a laser surface treatment like WAVETHRU.

In conclusion, traditional mobile signal boosters may not be the best solution for modern office buildings. Instead, consider alternative solutions like a laser surface treatment or Wi-Fi calling. By taking these steps, you can improve mobile signal strength in your office building and stay connected with your team and clients.

Choose the alternative solution today

As the world becomes increasingly mobile, access to strong and reliable mobile connectivity has become a necessity. This is especially true in office buildings, where employees rely on their mobile devices for work-related tasks, such as communication, research, and data analysis. However, it’s not uncommon for office buildings to suffer from poor mobile signal strength, which can be frustrating for employees and hinder productivity.

In this blog post, we’ll explore the technical factors that impact mobile signal in your building and provide some tips on how to improve it.

Building materials

The materials used in constructing a building can have a significant impact on signal strength. Some materials, such as concrete and metal, glass can cause attenuation or blockage of mobile signals, resulting in weak or no signal.

Distance from cell tower

The distance between your building and the nearest cell tower can also impact mobile signals. The farther your building is from the tower, the weaker the signal will be. This can be particularly problematic for buildings located in remote areas or areas with poor cellular coverage.

Obstructions to mobile signal strength

Obstructions such as trees, hills, and buildings can also weaken mobile signals. This is because these obstructions can block or reflect mobile signals, resulting in reduced signal strength.

Interference

Mobile signals operate on a specific frequency band. Other devices that operate on the same frequency, such as Wi-Fi routers, can interfere with mobile signals and cause a reduction in signal strength.

Network congestion

Network congestion can also impact mobile signals. This occurs when there are too many devices connected to the same cell tower, causing the tower to become overloaded and resulting in reduced signal strength.

Now that we’ve discussed the technical factors that impact mobile signal strength, here are some tips on how to improve it in your building:

Install a mobile signal booster

A mobile signal booster can help improve signal strength in your building by amplifying weak signals. It works by taking a particular existing mobile signal from outside the building, amplifying it, and rebroadcasting it inside the building. In most of the countries such kind of device needs a prior approval from mobile operators to be installed since such kind of device operates in their radio spectrum.

Move closer to a window

If your office is located in an area with poor signal strength, try moving closer to a window. The further away you are from the window, the weaker the signal. By moving closer to the window, you can pick up a stronger signal.

Remove obstructions to signal strength

If there are obstructions such as metallic solar blinder, trees or buildings blocking mobile signals, try removing them or relocating your device to a spot with fewer obstructions.

Install WAVETHRU for better signal strength

WAVETHRU offers a laser surface treatment applied to windows that allows ALL mobile signals present outside to enter deep inside the building again. This solution is half the price of traditional signal boosters and is compatible with all national mobile operators.

In conclusion, understanding the technical factors that impact mobile signals in your building can help you take steps to improve it. Whether it’s installing a mobile signal booster, removing obstructions, or opting for the WAVETHRU treatment, there are several ways to improve mobile signals and ensure reliable mobile connectivity in your office building.
