On-Ramp Wireless Honored by CONNECT as Most Innovative New Product Award Finalist
Recently launched Ultra-Link Processing™ Wireless Communication System
recognized in the Clean Technology category
San Diego, CA – September 28, 2009 – On-Ramp Wireless today announced that it has been honored as a finalist in the Clean Technology category of CONNECT’s Most Innovative New Product (MIP) Awards, San Diego’s most prestigious technology innovation award. On-Ramp was selected for its recently launched Ultra-Link Processing™ (ULP) Wireless Communication System, which is the first system purpose-built to efficiently connect billions of hard-to-reach meters, sensors and tracking devices in metro scale and other challenging environments.
Selected by a group of innovative industry experts, On-Ramp distinguished itself from nearly one hundred San Diego companies across eight categories. The MIP Awards, now in their twenty-second year, have identified innovative technologies on the rise as well as the companies that drive them. They are hosted by CONNECT, a regional non-profit organization dedicated to creating and sustaining the growth of innovative technology and life science businesses.
On-Ramp’s ULP system provides 600x network coverage advantage and 25x capacity efficiency advantage over competing free spectrum protocols. It can be used for metro-scale monitoring in smart grid, industrial condition monitoring, location tracking and security sensing applications. It is ground-breaking in that it is the first system to be able to demodulate signals below the noise floor while effectively maintaining high network capacity, low power consumption, and low system cost. For a video about On-Ramp and how ULP is helping to solve the smart grid monitoring problem, please see: http://bit.ly/13Cd8v.
The finalists will be voted on by a panel of Distinguished Judges and the winners will be announced at The MIP Awards Luncheon on Friday, December 11 in front of 800+ members of the San Diego community.
