TrellisWare Awarded $15.7M to Lead the Military Full Duplex Radio Program
SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) November 14, 2017 -- TrellisWare Technologies, Inc. (http://www.trellisware.com), the leading innovator of tactical networking solutions, today announced a contract award for $15.7M to develop the MFDR program for the NSC. The program objective sets out to simplify frequency planning and reduce the amount of spectrum required to deploy civilian and military communications by enabling systems to transmit and receive on the same frequency at the same time.
Tactical radio users including the United States Army, Joint Services, National Guard and first responders use an array of communication systems that need to work together in congested spectral environments. These systems must co-exist with existing communications and with other wireless systems which can result in significant frequency planning challenges such as channel interference, inefficient spectrum reuse, and addressing contingency plans under dynamic operational scenarios.
The industry leaders involved with the Military Full Duplex Radio all bring communications expertise and technologies needed in order to address same-frequency simultaneous transmit and receive (SF-STAR). TrellisWare is leading a multi-vendor team that includes Kumu Networks, Inc., and Rockwell Collins, to support the effort for a viable SF-STAR system employing sufficient self-interference suppression (SIS), practical for both commercial and military baselines.
“TrellisWare is pleased to be leading the effort on this exciting program to enable performing SF-STAR capabilities,” said Metin Bayram, President and CEO of TrellisWare. “We are equally excited because the proven technologies behind the Military Full Duplex Radio have so much potential to expand SF-STAR operation across many tactical radio applications.”
