R
Radio Controller (RC)
Circuit pack that provides the interface between the DEFINITY system and the radio subsystem. It controls one or more Wireless Fixed Bases.
Radio Propagation Measurement Tool (RPMT)
Tool within the WiSE Expert Design System that is used to provide basic radio measurements. The RPMT looks like a pocket phone and, once it is administered, it can also initiate and receive phone calls. The RPMT can supplement the Predictor, serve as a troubleshooting device, and be used at site surveys.
