repeater rules for inbuilding usage. However, a primary requirement that must be taken into account is the meticulous monitoring of the different services utilising the mobile network to assure optimal performance for safety critical communications.
Mobile black spots are prevalent in
built-up areas The mobile coverage challenge is not limited to areas with poor outdoor coverage either. Inner-city hospitals that are well served by all the mobile network operators (MNOs) are prone to inconsistent coverage because of building facades and sophisticated design architectures which block or severely hamper mobile signal penetration.

Other factors that must to be taken into account include the proximity of a mobile phone tower to a building in the first place, the network providers chosen to serve said building and the number of devices/services needing to simultaneously connect to the indoor mobile network.
A crisis such as this has provided the wake-up call needed to overhaul legacy systems and networks used in healthcare. Not only does this provide the perfect opportunity to ensure that all hospital buildings are ESN-ready, uninterrupted mobile connectivity is central to transforming unsustainable processes that are both costly and resource-intensive into sustainable ones.
