A university environment is highly mobile, with teaching staff and students moving among
different classrooms, libraries and offices. The use of VoWLANs at a university offers
tremendous benefits by enabling university staff to stay in touch from anywhere on campus.
This capability makes teachers more accessible to students, and the learning environment
is much safer. A teacher, for example, can report safety issues as they occur, rather than
having to wait until a class ends.
A challenge of deploying a VoWLAN system at a university is that coverage must include
a wide variety of buildings and outdoor areas. An extensive RF site survey is very important
to take into account the varying facility construction and obstacles blocking radio waves.
Even after installing the system, reevaluating coverage from time to time is generally
necessary to determine whether student traffic and campus functions offer major signal
attenuation.
