Private LTE Wireless Design for the 900 MHz Band

When planning a private LTE network, utilities are often faced with two fundamental questions:  

Is my spectrum sufficient for mission-critical applications—and how much infrastructure is truly needed to support it?  

This webinar will walk through a practical, data-driven approach to answering both. Attendees will learn how to evaluate the capacity and performance of the 900 MHz band for real-world utility use cases, using wireless system simulation to model applications within a proposed network design. 

We’ll also explore how to determine the optimal number and placement of base stations to achieve reliable coverage—without overbuilding. Through a phased deployment strategy, participants will gain insight into how to scale their network over time while controlling upfront costs and maintaining long-term flexibility. 

Featuring lessons learned from Lower Colorado River Authority, this session will provide practical guidance on spectrum evaluation, network planning, and avoiding costly overdesign. 

Key Takeaways: 

  • How to assess whether 900 MHz spectrum can support your utility applications 
  • Using simulation tools to model capacity, coverage, and performance 
  • Strategies for right-sizing base station deployment 
  • Phased network design approaches that balance cost and scalability 
  • Real-world insights from a utility-led private LTE deployment
