xG Technology has been invited to be a featured presenter at the Wireless Innovation Forum's Workshop on Disaster Recovery Communications. The event is being held at Holiday Inn on the Bay in San Diego, CA on March 15, 2012. xG's Vice President of Marketing, Rick Rotondo, will deliver the presentation.
The awesome power of large natural disasters or man-made incidents often compromises civilian and emergency communications over a large area. Traditional techniques have concentrated on building stronger terrestrial infrastructure to withstand such events, but these have proved insufficient in many cases. Consequently, command, communications, control, and situational awareness can be compromised.
xG's xMax cognitive radio network solution has the potential to close a critical communications capability gap by providing disaster response organizations with an affordable, independent, enterprise handheld wireless service. The system offers the following benefits that are critical to the public safety/disaster response community:
• Self-Frequency Planning – the system comes up automatically and finds available frequencies, no manual frequency co-ordination required
• Self-Optimizing – the system uses Dynamic Spectrum Access technology to maximize throughput and reliability, delivering a licensed spectrum experience in unlicensed spectrum
• Leverages existing smartphones, laptops, tables, etc. directly into the xMax mobile radio network to save costs and offer unmatched applications and functionality
• End-To-End IP Architecture – simplifies integration with LTE, P25 and other networks via industry standard interfaces and protocols
• Tactical and Scalable Deployments – rapidly deployable size and weight, proven integration with satellite and point to point backhaul radios
• Difficult to Jam or Hack – Dynamic channel/band hoping makes attacks and penetrations far more difficult than traditional radio systems
xMax is fully expeditionary and provides a level of resilience and continuity of operations that safeguards mission-assured communications, regardless of circumstance.
