IMPLEMENTATION AND MAINTENANCE OF SATELLITE ANTENNA THROUGH LOCOMOTIVE MONITORING IN RAIL TRANSPORT COMPANY

The goal is to address the initiatives by acting proactively to improve the satellite system and come to be fully operational. This study aims to overcome problems related to inefficient system planning, where the satellite antenna is fixed on a support which accumulates water due to heat exchange, between the internal and external environments, in this process of heat exchange between the environments the accumulated water that is in the support was pulled into itself, thus generating the problem under study, the infiltration of the satellite antenna. In the analyzes carried out, the PRTG Monitor Network program was used to monitor this process of operation of the same, observing the malfunction of this antenna, this antenna was removed from the locomotive for further analysis, and thus it was found that it leaves enough water from inside her, by breathing, where she makes this heat exchange. The experimental results showed that when opening a circumference in the middle of this support, they were effective, thus leaving the part of the free breath between the internal and external environments, also the internal maintenance of its electronic components, and finally the validation of the antenna signal levels of satellite.
