What is Mobile Optical Wireless Networking?
Mobile
Optical Wireless Networking is
point to multi-point communications technologies that
allow the transmission of data, voice and video
through the air to mobile entities at speeds up to one
terabit per second
without requiring fiber optic cable or securing
spectrum licenses. Optemax’s brand for its
collection of these 
technologies
is
BeamNetÒ.
The only
similar technology currently in the market is Free
Space Optics (FSO) which is a line-of-sight technology
that uses lasers to provide optical bandwidth
connections. Currently, FSO products are
typically capable of speeds of approximately 2.5 Gbps
over 4 Kilometers among stationary objects.
BeamNetÒ
is a
portfolio of emerging technologies developed by world
class research institutions which improves upon the
current implementations of Free Space Optics by an
order of magnitude. We are tackling the
challenges of fog, turbulence, attenuation, obstruction,
absorption, range limits, and networking. Technical
targets of the terrestrial/aerial
BeamNetÒ
are 10Gbps
and higher over 20 Kilometers to moving objects in an
adhoc network.
