Rely on HP's proven expertise for the specific turnkey capabilities your facility requires.
Wireless communications infrastructures offer airport operating authorities multiple advantages.
Anytime, anywhere services for all airport stakeholders. Rapid, cost-effective system expansion for new locations, applications, and services. Innovative options for automating key processes like baggage tracking, ticketing and check-in, ramp handling, and parking payment. Improved security and surveillance. And new revenue sources such as public Internet access and wireless point-of-sale kiosks.
But few airports have the resources or technical expertise to plan, design, implement, and manage wireless infrastructures and all the diverse technologies that run on them. These include optical devices, integrated applications, mass storage, security, network hardware and software, mobile devices, and more.
By providing comprehensive turnkey solutions, expert project management, and a uniquely collaborative approach, HP Services professionals can help you capitalize on wireless and its supporting technologies in the fastest, most cost-efficient manner, and with minimal inconvenience to your stakeholders. Our goal is simple: to help you create a more productive, flexible working environment for your operations, your tenants, and business travellers - and a more efficient and profitable operation for yourself.
We can provide state-of-the-art computing hardware, mobile access devices, private and public wireless LANs (WLANs), applications, and middleware. And we offer a full portfolio of services to bring it all together for operators, carriers, and other public and private airport users. Our solutions can comprise everything from systems integration and project management to site assessment; solution planning, design, staging and installation; custom application development and integration; security consulting; and ongoing management and support.
We've teamed with best-of-breed partners to deliver wireless solutions at airports around the world, including one of the largest international gateway airports in Europe, London's Heathrow, Hong Kong's Chek Lap Kok, Denver International, JFK in New York, and Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport.
A comprehensive, collaborative approach to solution design and deployment
We apply a rigorous, multi-step methodology to help ensure successful implementation of your wireless infrastructure. We begin by clearly identifying your business and application needs, then move on to:
- Assess your existing network infrastructure, back-end systems, and airport security policies.
- Plan and design your complete solution architecture, including means of access, network and supporting systems, management processes, and security measures.
- Model your network in detail, characterize all applications, and identify your total bandwidth requirements.
- Identify preliminary access-point locations, antenna types, radiation patterns, power levels, and channel assignments using computerized radio frequency simulation.
- Use sophisticated network planning, modeling, and simulation tools to let you "see" the performance and functionality your new solution can deliver even before pilot programs are initiated.
- Verify RF simulation results and establish final wireless infrastructure access point locations .
- Perform pilot trials to verify solution performance and functionality prior to full rollout.
- Implement your tested and verified solution.
