A pivot irrigation system or center pivot irrigation system is commonly used in agriculture in order to irrigate crops in a controlled and efficient manner. A pivot irrigation system assumes its name as a result of the equipment of the irrigation system rotating around on a pivot. Although this technology has existed for decades, it recently has been revolutionized with wireless data radio technology. Similar to other remote control technologies, wireless data radios have been used in order to gain remote control of pivot irrigation systems. Thus far automatic irrigation systems and remote controlled pivot irrigation systems have proven to be more accurate and efficient than traditional pivot irrigation systems. However, wireless data radios that contain pivot irrigation telemetry have proven to be even more effective and accurate.
In order to equip a pivot irrigation system for remote control access, four basic components are needed: a control panel with operating switches, a wireless transmitter, a wireless receiver, and an actuator. Most of these components come equipped in wireless data radio systems. Once all of the components have been installed, the pivot irrigation system can be controlled from a remote location. In order for this process to occur, the wireless transmitter will send a message or data instructions to the wireless receiver. Once this message or data instructions are received, the wireless receiver will convey this message to the actuator and control panel which changes the message into a specific action.
Raveon Technologies offers its consumers in the agriculture industry a variety of different products and services that have proven to be effective for remote control of pivot irrigation systems. The M7 CE Compliant UHF Data Radio is specifically designed for telemetry, wireless data, GPS, AVL, and remote control applications. If this product does not support one’s specific remote or wireless pivot irrigation system needs, Raveon Technologies also offers its current and existing customers the option of custom wireless design solutions. This service ensures that the needs of those wishing to install remote or wireless pivot irrigation systems are adequately served.

Packet data radios and switched circuit radio data transmission can offer its users a variety of different features and benefits. Packet dataradio transmissions contain data that is grouped into packets before it is transmitted to a networking system that delivers the information to its desired source. A unique feature of packet data radios and their transmission is that the network routes each individual packet of data separately to its desired destination. This allows each packet to receive its own identify in the transmission process. As a result of this, packet dataradio transmissions have a tendency to be more efficient, more flexible, more accurate, and more advanced that switched circuit radio data transmissions. One set back with packet data radios is that they do have a tendency to be more complicated than switch circuit radio and their data transmission. However, most packet dataradios users will agree that the benefits associated with packet data radios far outweigh this set back.
Data radio communication occurs when data is communicated and transmitted over radio frequencies. In order for the data radio communication process to occur, each unit must include a transmitter, electromagnetic waves or radio frequency data communications, and a receiver. The first phase of the data radio communication process begins with the transmitter. An antenna on the transmitter will intercept data radio communications to begin its modulation process. Once the modulation process is complete, the radio frequency data communications will be converted into a single radio wave. In doing this, the frequency, amplitude, and phase of the data communication must be altered in a defined manner. The second phase of the data radio communication process is for the transmitter to emit the electromagnetic waves or radio frequency data communications into space directly or through an altered path. If the radio frequency data communications are not strong enough, they may be subjected to electromagnetic interference from artificial or natural sources. The third phase of the data radio communications process is to have the radio frequency data communications be intercepted by the receiver through the use of its antenna. Once received, the receiver will decode the data from the radio frequency and display it as a physical form. It is at the point that the data radio communication process has reached its completion.
A data transceiver is traditionally used in the input and output processes of data communication. For those looking to broadcast data, such as an asset location or to allow
