A BRIEF HISTORY OF WASHINGTON LABS

To commemorate our 20th anniversary, we've compiled a history of how we started and who keeps us going. We thought it was entertaining and hope you will too.

Please take a few minutes and have a look - right over here...

THE BIRTH OF WILLIE

We're asked often about the origins of Willie, our lab robot. So, we're writing an online book about him!  We've published the prologue online. read about Willie right here...

Site Surveys

Reduce interference potential by knowing your electromagnetic environment. Radio frequency measurements of potential interference at your installation can help reduce problems in sensitive installations (i.e., medical devices, pace makers, etc.) To make these determinations, very specific measurements must be taken on location. And you probably needed it done yesterday.

We can help.


Washington Laboratories provides radio frequency measurements to Personal Communications Services and Cellular providers. We are the single resource for fast, accurate and responsive RF measurements from DC to 40 GHz.

Our services feature:

  • Automated measurements and data collection and reporting

  • Flexible on-site measurements: remote locations, suburban/urban locations

  • Discreet measurement techniques: extended and long-term measurements

  • Broad and narrow band measurements from DC-40 GHz

  • Magnetic field measurements: DC-30 MHz

  • Electric field measurements: 100 Hz -- 40 GHz

  • Measurements per ANSI C95.1: Radiation Hazards

  • Test plan preparation

  • Engineering propagation testing and studies

  • Design assistance and review

NIST Field Visit

NIST Field Visit

The Standards Services Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology were welcomed by Mike Violette and Steve Ferguson of Washington Labs. The group, led by Gordon Gillerman, were provided an overview of laboratory operations and the use of standards in everyday testing.

more... arrow

The Standards Services Division conducts standards-related programs and provides knowledge and services that will strengthen the U.S. economy, to ensure recognition and use of U.S. standards domestically and in the global marketplace; promote worldwide acceptance of U.S. test and calibration data to facilitate the marketing of U.S. products; and provide assistance to industry, trade associations, and exporters through its operations, training and information programs.

There are many dynamic areas of standards-setting in the area of technology products, software, homeland security and related disciplines in modern American life. Mike Violette provided a little "look under the hood" at some of the domestic and international activities.
