Radio wave environment display system and radio wave environment display method

A radio wave environment display system includes a measurement antenna and a radio wave environment display device. The measurement antenna measures a radio wave intensity of a first radio wave transmitted by the wireless communication service, and performs a scan of radio wave intensities of radio waves including the first radio wave in a target area. The radio wave environment display device includes a processor configured to: select a radio wave intensity of a second radio wave having a frequency the same as or in the vicinity of a frequency of the first radio wave from the radio waves obtained by the scan; and calculate a communication environment of a wireless communication service on the basis of a difference between the radio wave intensity of the first radio wave and the radio wave intensity of the second radio wave.

RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION PROCESS INDICATOR AND READER

Disclosed embodiments can pertain to process indicator enhancements. A process indicator can include a dye material that has electrical properties such as conductivity and capacitance that can be employed to determine whether observed conditions are acceptable or not to sterilize medical equipment. Furthermore, the indicators can employ amplification, a specialized antenna, or both to allow signals, such as an electronic property value, to be communicated through sterilization containers that can shield or degrade signals. A number and location of indicators can also be determined and utilized to assist in visual inspection of the indicators as well as automatic evaluation.
