MATRIX provides the expertise and capabilities to address the challenges facing the design and deployment of wireless communications networks in the coming years. MATRIX understands the strategies, economics and approaches needed to rapidly design, deploy and upgrade wireless communications networks on a local, regional, national, and even global scale.

The team of professionals at MATRIX has extensive experience with all the established technologies in the wireless arena, along with working knowledge of the emerging technologies and innovations that are forthcoming. We have designed, deployed, and managed systems across the spectrum of two-way radio, cellular and PCS communications, wireless data, and satellite transmission systems. Our experiences include analog, digital, 2G, 3G, various fixed wireless, satellite, and broadband solutions, including 2.4 and 5.8 GHz technologies. This portfolio gives us a strong understanding of the issues and challenges in network development. Mature networks face site capacity and frequency strains; new system deployments and system wide upgrades are capital intensive and time sensitive; the regulatory environment, both federal and local, is ever more restrictive. Our successes in designing and deploying networks under these circumstances has come from the accumulation of experience, the leadership of our professional teams, and the willingness to embrace and recommend new technology solutions.
