Line-of-sight Communications


Line-of-sight CommunicationMillitech has over 20 years of experience developing military and commercial millimeter-wave radios for secure fixed wireless line-of-sight communications applications. Millimeter-wave radio has several advantages over its conventional microwave counterpart, such as spectrum availability. These systems have pencil-thin antenna beams due to their short wavelength resulting in high frequency reuse and security. Penetration of fog enables high up-time (5-9's) at distances of up to 1.5 km.

Typical applications include:
  • V-band/E-band/W-band radios (FCC)
  • Fiber extension (last mile)
  • Militarized radio
  • Covert wireless communications
  • High bandwidth

More than seventeen gigahertz of spectrum has been allocated in the US for millimeter-wave communications in both unlicensed (FCC part 15) and coordinated use. With such abundance of available spectrum, wireless full-duplex transport at GigE rates and higher are now practical using millimeterwave point-to-point radios.

Millitech supports these markets in several ways:
  • Military/commercial product development
  • Complete turn-key demonstration systems
  • Custom MMW module supplier (development and production)
