FASMETRICS S.A. In-Transport Cellular System 3skelion+ has been successfully installed on the Blue Star Ferries ro-pax ferry BLUE STAR NAXOS.BLUE STAR NAXOS is passenger vessel operating in Greek seas, it can accommodate up to 1,474 passengers and 240 cars. 3skelion+ installation performed for a mobile network operator, aims to improve 4G radio access technology performance (in-ship network capacity & mobile internet speeds) on the installed in-ship RF repeater system. BLUE STAR NAXOS today operates non-stop on ship-routes to Cyclades.

About 3skelion: 3skelion+ system aims at improving coverage, capacity & quality of communications on your in-vehicle broadband repeater sites. High gain directional antennas can now replace the legacy omnidirectional and act as natural "coverage boosters" and "interference filters" for the repeaters in use. Managed and controlled by a sophisticated operating system, 3skelion+ base station scanners will detect the strongest, highest quality signals to "feed" the repeater.

3skelion Product Highlights

1. Scans, detects & automatically connects to the best "donor" radio base station in the horizon
2. Scanning is simultaneously performed @ 360°, on at least 3 equal spaced sectors (120°/sector),
3. Radio base station detection & PI collection is enabled through build-in scanner modules
4. Comparison, evaluation and selection is performed according to selected PI proprietary algorithms.
5. Automatic connection is assisted by a sophisticated controller that drives in real-time RF switches

3skelion Brief Description

3skelion in-vehicle cellular systems outperform the traditional omnidirectional antennas fully deployed on moving RF repeater systems. Capable of scanning, detecting and automatically selecting the optimum donor radio base station direction, your repeater systems will no longer waste their valuable power in re-transmitting "junk" in their service area.  High gain directional antennas can now replace the legacy omnidirectional and act as natural "coverage boosters" and "interference filters" for the repeaters in use. Managed and controlled by a sophisticated operating system, 3skelion base station scanners will detect the strongest, highest quality radio signals to "feed" the repeater. This unique functionality allows the repeater to enhance its operational performance, while in-motion on "distant" and "noisy" service environments. Programmed to collect - process - analyze and store network data, 3skelion will alert you about the problematic areas along the repeater's service routes. Identified with a unique tracking number, 3skelion's global positioning system will pin-point on a map the repeater performance, at any time and place in its entire operational lifetime. Through its embedded remote server capability interacts with your network maintenance center and ensures its every day operational activity. Being fully autonomous, 3skelion is a powerful IP67 outdoor unit that has been manufactured for harsh environments with the highest standards for long lasting reliability. 3skelions are valuable repeater performance improvement systems that can be easily installed and maintained on the field.
