Application Note DK9222-1109-0015
​
The​2.4​GHz​band​is​the​only​suitable,​licence‑free,​worldwide​usable​frequency​band​for​industrial​automation,​as​the​relatively​
large​bandwidth​of​80​MHz​has​acceptable​propagation​characteristics.​Wireless​solutions​that​rely​on​this​technology​are​very​
well​suited​to​industrial​automation​and​deliver​good​results​in​practice.​However,​all​of​that​is​of​little​use​if​one​is​not​familiar​
with​the​basic​principles​of​radio​technology​and​when​troubleshooting​during​commissioning​takes​a​long​time.​Automation​
processes​require​rapid​deterministic​communication,​which​is​dependent​on​both​the​frequency​band​and​the​topology​in​
radio‑based​data​transmission.
