The Wave Relay MANET

The Wave Relay MANET is a dynamic routing algorithm that delivers reliable, fast, and highly scalable connectivity – the heart and soul of Persistent’s networking devices.

Our technology transforms UAVs, UGVs, cameras, sensors, and people into a global fabric of connectivity to stream uninterrupted audio, video, and data even in difficult urban, subterranean, mountainous, or maritime environments.

With a single device, warfighters and first responders get real-time knowledge to make the informed, split-second decisions necessary to complete their mission and return safely.

In this video, we talk about the Wave Relay MANET in the air and introduce Next Generation ISR! Our goal is to empower dismounted warfighters as well as decision makers in operation centers with real-time video from both manned and unmanned aircraft. Next Generation ISR allows for seamless transition between line-of-sight (LOS) and cloud-based connectivity. It also leverages the Wave Relay MANET’s multi-hop capability, including indirect distribution of video, allowing warfighters, indoors or underground, to still receive ISR video, even if they are not in direct LOS of the ISR platform.
