This article will introduce the three trends driving the need for persistent spectrum monitoring before comparing the benefits of a proactive approach to traditional RF drive tests which are often reactive and capture only a brief snapshot of the wireless environment. It will conclude by highlighting some of the key features and performance requirements RF Engineers should consider when comparing RF receivers.

This checklist will provide the top six key questions that RF Engineers and operators should ask when comparing solutions and determine which is best suited to their application. With a strong understanding of how the RF power amplifier will be used in the field and the level of performance, reliability, and discretion required, users will be in a much stronger position to evaluate different solutions and select the one that best aligns with their objectives.
