Technology Overview

Ultra-Link Processing™ is the first wireless system purpose-built to solve the challenges of sensor, metering, and asset data tracking in metro-scale and other difficult radio environments. The technology addresses problems, such as signal range, robustness, and interference, that can limit wide-scale deployment of wireless sensors and metering devices. Our ground up development of the ULP technology fills a massive gap in wireless performance; the void between existing communications platforms of higher data rate licensed spectrum cellular systems and free spectrum short range wireless radio platforms (e.g., 802.11, 802.15.4) with mesh networking.

Ultra-Link Processing™ (ULP)

Operating in unlicensed spectrum, our innovative signal processing technology finds weak signals even in high noise environments; resulting in extreme coverage, high levels of immunity to interference, and a significantly lower cost to deploy and operate a network. ULP technology is unique in the industry in that it has the ability to offer the customer hundreds of square miles of robust, low power coverage in the free spectrum with minimal network infrastructure. Prior to the arrival of ULP, the industry was required to add complex, capacity inefficient mesh protocol stacks and cellular backhaul to stitch together coverage. These types of patchwork solutions result in complex network planning exercises, high infrastructure, and operational costs that live on for years after the first rollouts are complete.
