]]> New Multipath Radio (MPR) platform https://comtech.com/capability/mpr-platform/ Thu, 13 Feb 2025 01:03:20 +0000 https://comtech.com/?post_type=capability&p=12748

New Multipath Radio (MPR) platform

Built on the proven success of Comtech’s next-generation Troposcatter systems, the MPR platform’s multimode functionality, diverse antenna support, and advanced signal processing techniques empower users to establish secure, reliable and resilient communications links in challenging environments where traditional radios struggle. Today, MPR supports line-of-sight (“LOS”), obstructed-line-of-sight (“OLOS”), and beyond-line-of-sight (“BLOS”) scenarios.

In the past, terrestrial BLOS communications systems were limited due to large size, high-power requirements, and complexity of operation. Leveraging over 40 years of multipath radio technology leadership, Comtech’s MPR is revolutionizing high data rate communications capabilities by providing a rapidly deployable, transportable, low SWAP solution for military and commercial operators.

Comtech’s Multipath Mitigation Technology Advantage:

Today, reliable communications in diverse environments are essential for military and critical infrastructure applications. However, multipath propagation, where radio signals travel along multiple paths before reaching the end user, disrupts signal integrity, causing a drop in communications or total loss of connectivity. Comtech’s MPR solves multipath disruption by a unique combination of diverse techniques, advanced forward error correction, and adaptive coding and modulation, that represent a first for the industry.

Operational Value for End Users:

BLOS without SATCOM: MPR provides real-time data connectivity over-the-horizon up to 150 miles; this capability can be critical in satellite contested environments or when limited space segment is available.

Reliable Communications: The MPR ensures clear and consistent communications across echelons, overcoming signal degradation caused by terrain or obstacles.

Enhanced Situational Awareness: Reliable data exchange facilitates a shared understanding of a variety of scenarios ranging from military operations to disaster response, which is crucial for informed decision-making.

Improved Interoperability: The MPR is over the air compatible with Comtech’s entire Family of Troposcatter Systems. To enhance network and information interoperability, MPR provides an easy-to-use Layer 2 interface integration package for all IP based MESH and MANET radio networks.

Common Digital Architecture: MPR is designed to leverage a common digital architecture across the Company’s other product lines, including Comtech’s Digital Common Ground modems. 

Low SWAP: The MPR provides users maximum SWAP flexibility against varied environments. The small footprint and rapid set up provide users with a true expeditionary capability.

Enhancements: Comtech’s MPR has a series of planned enhancements, including point-to-multi-point, which will allow simultaneous communications to multiple on-the-move platforms and stationary sites, eliminating the need for multiple systems at the hub location.

Fixed Troposcatter Installations

Commercial grade fixed sites for permanent infrastructure and strategic networks.

Fixed troposcatter installations allow distant sites to maintain high data rate, low latency communications with a high level of availability. 

Capable of ranges upwards of 200 km, they can reduce the need for multiple line-of-sight repeater stations, eliminating additional infrastructure and manpower costs.

Applications include:

  • Remote energy
  • Low-latency infrastructure
  • Reduction of relay sites
