Aerostat Systems Help Boost Border Security

1 week ago | mwrf.com | Jack Browne

Guarding against illegal border crossings can be difficult across long distances and rugged terrain. But RT LTA Systems Ltd. has developed innovative aerostat technology for deploying systems needed in the detection of border crossings via all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). With the aid of ATVs, the aerostat systems can deploy intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), and communications systems capable of broad 360° detection coverage.
Morse Micro Wi-Fi HaLow Chip Optimized for European and Middle Eastern Markets

2 weeks ago | mwrf.com | Alix Paultre

To further help expand IoT deployments in Europe and the Middle East, Morse Micro added the MM8102 to its Wi-Fi HaLow SoC family. A low-power variant of the company's MM8108, the MM8102 is available with 1- or 2-MHz bandwidth at 256-QAM modulation, enabling a throughput of up to 8.7 Mb/s. Operating on the sub-GHz ISM bands, the SoC offers greater range and signal penetration than legacy 2.4-, 5-, and 6-GHz Wi-Fi networks, while meeting European and global regulatory requirements.
