ViFi™: The Next Generation WLAN
ViFi™ can convey high-bandwidth data simultaneously to and from multiple participants on an individual basis in immersive simulations.
Gigabit Virtual Simulation Networks
ViFi™ is an optimal system to replace wiring inside an aircraft to establish connection between modules. Sophisticated electronics aboard the aircraft are not shielded from EMI interference caused by a typical WLAN system. ViFi™ does not pose EMI interference to electronics in aircraft.
Airborne Networks
ViFi™ confines the RF signal within the desired coverage area. The unique confinement characteristics of ViFi™ eliminates the security and detectability concerns that are inherent to traditional WLAN deployments. ViFi™ can, in particular, serve Navy vessels for top side ship coverage, which requires high security demands and the need to operate in Emissions Controlled (EMCON) conditions.
Shipboard Networks
ViFi™ was conceived in order to overcome the challenges of V-band WLAN development and deployment while preserving the technological legacies created by the existing WLAN systems. ViFi™ solves the LOS requirements at V-band frequencies by a unique spatial transmit and receiver diversity. Benefits include:
Applications
- Several GHz of unlicensed band
- Effective node distribution
- Signal confinement by oxygen absorption
- Use of latest mmWave technology with mass market potential
- Antenna diversity as an anti-shadowing scheme
- 802.11 economies
