Use Case: Real-time data integration for ELD compliance, telematics, and fleet management

Solutions Deployed

Challenge

The U.S. trucking industry’s shift to electronic logging devices (ELD) required fleet operators to digitize Hours of Service (HOS) tracking and deploy connected systems across vehicles.

Platform Science delivers a platform that integrates multiple applications within the truck, requiring reliable, real-time communication between vehicles, systems, and end users. To support this, Platform Science needed a connectivity solution that could:

“Airgain’s ULTRAMAX GLASS resulted in a best-in-class connectivity component for providing critical information to ensure our customers’ compliance.”

Operational Results

Reliable real-time communication for ELD and telematics

The solution enables continuous, reliable transmission of critical data, supporting real-time monitoring of Hours of Service (HOS) and vehicle performance across the fleet.

Multi-network connectivity in a single integrated antenna

By combining MIMO LTE, GPS, and Wi-Fi into a single antenna, the solution supports seamless connectivity across multiple wireless technologies while maintaining compatibility with a wide range of in-vehicle routers and modems.

Vehicles enabled as connected IoT hubs

The integrated connectivity architecture allows vehicles to function as IoT hubs, supporting edge computing and enabling multiple applications to operate simultaneously within the fleet environment.

Simplified in-cabin installation and deployment

The compact, low-profile design supports flexible in-cabin mounting options, making installation easier without adding bulky or intrusive hardware to the vehicle interior.

Scalable platform for connected fleet operations

The antenna solution supports Platform Science’s broader platform by enabling consistent connectivity across vehicles, helping fleets scale connected applications and meet evolving regulatory and operational requirements.
