Abstract
Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide an exemplary protective enclosure system that includes a cover having a protective cavity. The cover includes a substrate layer and protective layer, with the protective layer comprising a radio-frequency-transparent polyurea. The cover is lightweight and can be installed with minimal manpower and equipment.
Claims22
A protective enclosure system comprising:
- a cover that forms a protective cavity, the cover comprising:
- a substrate layer having a predetermined thickness and a predetermined density, the substrate layer having an outer surface and an inner surface that defines the protective cavity, the substrate layer being transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz at the predetermined thickness and the predetermined density;
- and
- a protective layer surrounding the substrate layer, the protective layer comprising a radio-frequency-transparent polyurea that is transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz;
- and
- an equipment-mounting component positioned within the protective cavity, configured to mount an item to be protected such that the item is fully enclosed by the cover.
3 more elements
A protective enclosure system for mobile communications network equipment, comprising:
- a cover that forms a protective cavity for enclosing an antenna of the mobile communications network, the cover comprising:
- a substrate layer having a predetermined thickness and a density of between 1 to 10 pounds per cubic foot, the substrate layer having an outer surface and an inner surface that defines the protective cavity, the substrate layer being transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz at the predetermined thickness and the density;
- and
- a protective layer surrounding the outer surface of the substrate layer, the protective layer comprising a radio-frequency-transparent polyurea that is transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz;
- and
- an antenna-mounting component positioned within the protective cavity and integrated with the cover, the antenna-mounting component configured to attach an antenna of the mobile communications network to the protective enclosure system.
3 more elements
A method, comprising:
- providing a cover that forms a protective cavity, comprising:
- providing a substrate layer having a predetermined thickness and a predetermined density, the substrate layer having an outer surface and an inner surface that defines the protective cavity, the substrate layer being transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz at the predetermined thickness and the predetermined density;
- and
- providing a protective layer surrounding the substrate layer, the protective layer comprising a radio-frequency-transparent polyurea that is transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz;
- providing an equipment-mounting component within the protective cavity, configured to receive and to mount an item to be protected;
- and
- fully enclosing the item to be protected by the cover.
4 more elements
A protective enclosure system comprising:
- a cover that forms a protective cavity, at least a portion of the cover comprising a protective layer comprising a radio-frequency-transparent polyurea having a predetermined thickness that is transparent to radio frequencies from 0 GHz to over 25 GHz at the predetermined thickness;
- and
- an equipment-mounting component positioned within the protective cavity, configured to mount an item to be protected such that the item is fully enclosed by the cover.
