Unmanned Systems

The rapidly evolving communication needs of the unmanned system sector can cause expensive delays and headaches for any drone development project. Slash those risks using our extensive experience with proven solutions and cutting-edge techniques. Improve your unmanned project connectivity, increase efficiency, and reduce your costs and time to market.

How can we help?

Long range Wi-Fi communication

Long-range Wi-Fi connectivity optimization will add significant value to your unmanned system. Leverage our experience with Wi-Fi Broadcasting (WFB) and Forward Error Correction (FEC) to build a broader feature scope, expand your available frequency ranges, and develop other hardware and software features that help optimize the range of your unmanned system.

Narrow channels

Can you build narrow channel capabilities into your unmanned system project? From interference mitigation to network optimization and multi-device support, narrow channels are foundational tech for a range of powerful features. Our proprietary FirmUx framework can help implement narrow channels for select modules and our R&D engineers are ready to assist you in making the most of this powerful technology.

Interference avoidance techniques

Depending on the application, interference can pose a significant risk to unmanned assets by disrupting communication and control connectivity or degrading sensor data and feedback transmission quality. Interference avoidance techniques are as numerous as they are complex, and the right one will depend on your application. We can help you choose between Forward Error Correction (FEC), narrow channels, extended frequency ranges, frequency hopping, mmWave, and a range of other solutions perfect for your application.

Physical layer security solutions

8devices’ Physical Layer Security (PLS) solutions use the inherent properties of wireless channels to enhance the integrity and confidentiality of communications, making it harder for active or passive eavesdroppers and active jammers to intercept or disrupt signals. Depending on your use case, we can implement advanced techniques like specialized coding, custom signal processing, dynamic power control, and more to deliver cutting-edge features like channel frequency shifting and automatic channel bandwidth control.

Seamless network data transmission

We can help build WFB, Non-Ack WDS, and other seamless wireless connectivity solutions perfect for wireless networks with mobile components. Transmit video, audio, telemetry, and other types of data across data link nodes, mesh networks, and more with optimal connectivity and user experience.
