In Figure 3, we see a typical layout of a farm complex, with collection yard, dairy
and surrounding buildings.
The general guidance for a situation like this would be as follows:
1.
Mount the antenna in a location which will allow for line of sight over the
collection yard. (cows will be in the collection yard at least twice per day
allowing for data upload).
2.
The base station and the antenna should be mounted no less than 2m above
ground level to avoid animal interference.
3.
When installing conduct a range test to confirm sufficient signal is available
around the complex to allow for data upload.
