Private LTE/5G RF Assurance for Manufacturing

Keep AGVs and AMRs Connected Across the Production Floor

Milewire independently measures and validates Private LTE and Private 5G RF performance in manufacturing environments where mobility, handovers, interference, and coverage degradation can interrupt operations.

The infrastructure vendor may deploy the private cellular network. Milewire independently validates whether that network actually supports the operation.

When the Network Looks Healthy but Operations Still Have Problems

Private cellular dashboards can show healthy infrastructure while mobile devices still experience poor RF conditions along production routes. Steel structures, machinery, changing inventory, cell boundaries, interference, and configuration changes can create localized problems that are difficult to identify from infrastructure monitoring alone.

AGV or AMR Disconnects

Intermittent connectivity loss or communication failures along repeatable routes.

Poor Cell-Edge Performance

Weak or unstable RF conditions where devices transition between coverage areas.

Handover Problems

Unexpected serving-cell behavior, failed transitions, or degraded connectivity while equipment is moving.

Packet Loss and Latency Spikes

Short-duration network degradation that can affect industrial applications even when average network KPIs appear acceptable.

Coverage Degradation

Plant changes, machinery, racks, inventory, or infrastructure changes alter previously acceptable RF conditions.

Interference or RF Anomalies

Localized RF conditions that require field measurement rather than dashboard-only troubleshooting.

Manufacturing RF Assurance Assessment

A focused field assessment for Private LTE and Private 5G networks supporting industrial mobility.

  1. 01

    Define Critical Routes

    Identify production areas, AGV/AMR paths, known failure locations, and network performance concerns.

  2. 02

    Measure

    Collect RF and active network measurements across defined operational routes.

  3. 03

    Analyze

    Correlate RF conditions, serving-cell behavior, mobility events, latency, packet loss, and geographic location.

  4. 04

    Report and Prioritize

    Provide engineering evidence showing where problems occur, what conditions are associated with them, and what should be investigated or remediated first.

What the Customer Receives

  • Geospatial RF coverage map
  • Route-based RF performance results
  • Cell-edge and weak-coverage identification
  • Serving-cell and mobility observations
  • Latency and packet-loss evidence
  • Identified repeatable problem locations
  • RF degradation and anomaly findings
  • Engineering observations and likely contributing factors
  • Remediation priorities
  • Recommended re-test criteria

Deliverables are findings, observations, measured conditions, likely contributing factors, and recommended investigation areas — not certified engineering conclusions.

Independent Validation Beyond the Infrastructure Dashboard

Infrastructure monitoring is necessary, but it does not always show what a moving device experiences on the production floor. Milewire adds field-based evidence by measuring the network from the operational path itself.

Infrastructure monitoring answers:

  • Is the RAN operational?
  • Are cells available?
  • Are alarms present?
  • What are network-wide KPIs showing?

RF Assurance answers:

  • What does the device experience along its actual route?
  • Where does RF performance degrade?
  • What happens near cell boundaries?
  • Are problems repeatable at specific physical locations?
  • Did a remediation actually improve field performance?
In Development

From Periodic Assessment to Autonomous RF Assurance

Milewire is developing an autonomous measurement model designed to extend route-based RF assurance beyond periodic manual testing. EdgeProbe is intended to collect repeatable RF and network-performance measurements from the operational environment and feed those measurements into centralized analysis.

  1. EdgeProbe
  2. Route-Based Measurement
  3. RF + Network KPI Collection
  4. Geospatial Correlation
  5. Centralized Analysis
  6. Degradation and Trend Identification

The objective is continuous, repeatable RF assurance rather than one-time troubleshooting.
