End-to-end control of urban assault operations is hard for traditional communications links. Broadband, high-speed connectivity inside multi-storey buildings is difficult without fixed 4G/5G infrastructure, and legacy links are typically low data rate, unreliable or insecure.

DTC’s MeshUltra waveform provides MANET IP connectivity for the secure, seamless exchange of Full Motion Video, audio, GPS and Cursor on Target data between the commander and assault team leaders. The excellent non-line-of-sight properties of COFDM let the RF signal penetrate every floor of a building, with each team member’s body-worn radio acting as a repeater to extend coverage.

The result is shared situational awareness from inside the building during an assault, giving commanders real-time feedback and enabling the fast, informed decisions that keep operations successful and safe.
