Two-way voice was one of the first commercial applications of radio technology and continues to be an invaluable tool for mobile professionals in a wide range of enterprises. As these radios go digital the IT department is getting more involved in the decision process.


For most of its history, two-way radio has been an analog medium, and to this day the vast majority of systems are still analog including current 800 MHz systems; the future of two-way radio systems will be digital systems that can offer greater spectral efficiency for higher calling capacity, enhanced voice quality at the farthest margins of the RF range, and more reliable coverage — making it easier to hear and understand conversations, even at long range. Digital two-way radio also promises features and capabilities that analog simply can’t such as:


• Enabling longer battery life in the field by requiring less transmit power, depending on the specific transmit methods and power-management technologies used in the device,

• Enable flexible privacy between individual users and groups, without degrading voice quality or requiring configuration of add-on hardware.[1]
