InterferenceAdvisor

Identifying and rectifying interference issues in a mobile environment is a challenging but critical task. Mobile users near the interference source will experience degraded call success rates, increased dropped calls, decreased battery life, poor voice quality, and reduced data throughput. Detecting, locating, and finally eliminating sources of RF interference is critical to maintaining good user experience throughout the network. 

VIAVI InterferenceAdvisor™, our fully automated spectrum clearing and interference hunting solution, is the most user-friendly solution available today. Simple to set up and completely intuitive, InterferenceAdvisor allows one RF engineer to easily identify and locate an interference source with minimal effort: voice prompts simply direct the engineer to the source of interference. What used to take days to troubleshoot can now be done in hours by following a few simple steps.

InterferenceAdvisor is versatile tool that can help in isolating all types of RF interference for common cellular channels.
