Your Wireless & Security Experts

Services

No matter what your industry, TSC Wireless can be your trusted security and wireless advisors.

Though customers typically bring us in to perform a specific one time task, it is generally the beginning of an ongoing relationship that adds value to the customer business. Customers appreciate that we are not interested in selling them as much equipment as possible, scoring points or showing them that they are wrong or that we are smarter than them. We are only interested in supporting our customers ongoing success, and that is always the foundation of a great partnership.

“Having Dr. Hessel on our team brings a level of technical capability and accuracy that no one else in the wireless industry can approach.” said Mark Kadrich, TSC’s President and CEO.

TSC Wireless Spotlight: Steven Hessel, Ph.D.

Steve HesselDr. Steve Hessel brings strengths in radio frequency communications, computer networking and system performance to The Security Consortium's wireless and network security efforts. He has over 20 years experience in research and development in such diverse fields as mixed signal systems, R.F. instrumentation, microwave integrated circuits, and multi-processor and networked system performance.

Steve has developed innovative field-portable instrumentation that measures wireless signals with extreme precision which allows TSC to design secure wireless networks with previously unattainable reliability.

While at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Steve developed and patented several protocols contributing to high-speed network communications including a protocol for encoding data that was used in Agilent's G-link products, the Serial HIPPI standard and the IEEE 802.11 standard. Much of today’s fiber-optic communication uses his work.

As a member of Hewlett-Packard's System Performance Laboratory where he specialized in multi-processor performance, Steve initiated a large main-memory project that enabled Hewlett-Packard's entry into the data mining market.

Steve holds a Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree with a Radio Frequency Communication emphasis, both in electrical engineering from Brigham Young University. He also holds a Doctorate from Stanford University, in electrical engineering specializing in Data Communication Networking.
