Abstract
The subject of the disclosure is a method for testing the radio communication characteristics of a means of transport, said method having the steps: shaping a portable casing, which is configured from an electrically conductive material, in such a manner that the shape of the casing models a shape of the means of transport, arranging an item of fixtures and fittings within the casing, transmitting a radio signal at a first location within the casing, and receiving the radio signal, which is influenced by the item of fixtures and fitting, at a second location that is remote form the first location within the casing.
Claims19
Method for testing radio communication characteristics of a means of transport, said method comprising the steps:
- shaping a portable casing, which is configured from an electrically conductive material, in such a manner that the shape of the casing models a shape of the means of transport and wherein the casing is configured as a canvas that is coated with a metal and/or is configured as an aluminium sheet,
- arranging an item of fixtures and fittings within the casing,
- transmitting a radio signal at a first location within the casing,
- receiving the radio signal, which is influenced by the item of fixtures and fitting, at a second location that is remote form the first location within the casing, and
- varying the first location, the second location, a material of the item of fixtures and fitting, the item of fixtures and fittings and/or a position of the item of fixtures and fittings within the casing to such an extent that a signal strength of the received radio signal is improved or a maximum signal strength is achieved within the casing.
A method of using a portable shape-imparting casing, the shape of said casing being modelled on the shape of a means of transport and said casing being configured from an electrically conductive material, the method comprising:
- providing an item of fixtures and fittings within the casing,
- transmitting a radio signal from a first location within the casing,
- receiving the radio signal at a second location that is remote from the first location within the casing, wherein the radio signal is influenced by the item of fixtures and fittings,
- varying the first location, the second location, a material of the item of fixtures and fitting, the item of fixtures and fittings and/or a position of the item of fixtures and fittings within the casing to such an extent that a signal strength of the received radio signal is improved or a maximum signal strength is achieved within the casing
- testing the radio communication characteristics of the means of transport, and wherein the casing is configured as a canvas that is coated with a metal and/or is configured as an aluminium sheet.
