Communications that allow up to 70km range meshed and automatic relay
Standard Radios
Several Manufacturers of Radios are compatible with Overwatch 6 both the ground control station and the UAS. These radios can reach 20 km range in standard configurations. We are able to extend the range with amplifiers and tracking antennas that if allowed in your location can be configured.
Operators Capabilities
The Radios below are able to display the Overwatch 6 Video feed on a chest mounted rig or on a laptop or tablet.
OEM Module for UAV
Light weight radio module with up to two frequency bands implemented in the radio. External antennas are added to the Overwatch 6 that allows for a long range transmission at speeds high enough to transmit HD Video, Voice and Data from and though this powerful MIMO radio.
Ground Mobile Radio that can Mesh with the Airborne Radio and support 20 Watts of Power internally with TXBeamforming
The ground mobile radio operates with the Airborne radio and connects seamlessly to other ground mobile radios creating a meshed network. As long as radios are connected, every user can see the UAV video feed and can transmit their GPS coordinated fully encrypted using AES 256 encryption and have their location overlaid on a map displayed on a tablet or phone. If an operator is non-line of sight to the ground control operator, automatically a relay is created in order for clients on the network to communicate to any other user on the network. This radio is cable of transmitting up to 100 Mbps over the air and can up to 160km reach speeds capable of transmitting HD video. In addition now the Silvus Radio can support power levels up to 20 Watts of power internally for longer range communications! Additionally two separate frequencies can be ordered and installed in one unit.
For more information contact us.
Tracking Antennas
For long range operations, a tracking antenna that follows the Overwatch 6 needs to be installed. Depending on the required frequency, and if there is more than one frequency, different dishes and antennas will be offered.
Country Specific Frequencies
As we all know every country dictates what power level and frequency can be used in order to have a frequency spectrum that doesn’t infringe on public safety and other national interests. These radios are able to be delivered with two different bands in the same unit meeting most users needs. There maybe circumstances where other special frequencies aren’t listed but can be accommodated.
Please ask us if there is a frequency needed that’s not listed.
