GL has developed, in house, an extensive array of advanced
tools. The tools are used for design and engineering of wireless and microwave network, including site location, service
area coverage prediction, frequency planning, interference prediction and digital microwave interconnect engineering.
Our customers in transportation and wireless industry throughout the United States have used the tools to their benefits.
We periodically update the tools to stay current with the latest technologies.

- RF Propagation Tool: A
fundamental task for a Radio network designer is to predict RF coverage by using “RF Propagation Tool” based on
a set of proposed site parameters and system requirements that would help to determine whether the intended
service objectives can be met. The characteristics of a propagating RF signal largely depends on the radio
frequency, geographic terrain, foliage, buildings, and varying weather conditions…

- Intermodulation Calculator Tool:
Intermodulation interference occurs when two or more transmitters, transmitting at different frequencies, are
coupled, resulting in the mixing of signals. This results in the presence of additional frequencies, called
intermodulation products, that are either sum or difference of the transmitted frequencies. If the products fall
within the bandwidth of a receiver, intermodulation interference may occur...
- Microwave Path Profile Tool: A first
step in microwave path design is positioning microwave antennas to form a line-of-site connection between two
stations. Curvature of the earth, terrain elevation, buildings and trees must all be taken into consideration when
planning the microwave link...
