Figure 5: Angling antennas
Tip 2: Obstructions
Antennas should be mounted to avoid signal obstruction from rock, vehicles, equipment and
machinery as shown in Figure 6: Antenna mounting to avoid obstructions.

Multiple antennas should be mounted to avoid crossing signal paths as shown in Figure 7: Antenna
directivity.

The positioning of the antennas is crucial when AeroScout tags are used for asset tracking and
location services. AeroScout tags will not be read when there are antenna standing wave nulls.
Antennas need to be positioned to have best reception of tag messages. For Antenna mounting
options, see Antenna Mounting Options on page 15.
