What is Wave Relay™?

• MANET is an acronym for Mobile Ad-Hoc NETwork.

• An evolution of MESH technology – A completely self-forming / self-healing network.

• Continuous connectivity on the move.

• Peer to Peer Multi-hop Connectivity between a set of nodes that are in motion.

• Operates at Layer 2 of the OSI/ISO Network stack.

• Operates like a seamless Ethernet switch.

• Supports Unicast, Multicast, and Broadcast traffic.

• No pre-existing network infrastructure is required.

• Continuous connectivity on the move

• Proprietary multi-casting algorithm.

• Seamless IP connectivity operating in a MANET

• Radios work as a “Collective”

• No limit to the number of radios that can form a network,

already tested successfully tested with up to 320 nodes.

• No limit in data hops

• No master node or single point of failure

• Secure communication – Suite B Encryption / FIPS 140-1

What is a MANET?

A Wave Relay network is self-creating and self-healing. The more nodes in

the network, the more robust the network will be.

The Wave Relay algorithm will automatically determine the most efficient path for the

flow of data across the MANET.

MISSION

Under the strategic coordination of an homeland

Crisis Room and the tactical coordination of a TOC

Enter hostile territory

Search, identify and seize Insurgent Leader

Neutralize insurgent reaction by coordinated

Ground/Air operations

Safe transport of IL to Coalition Base

Homeland Crisis Room

Strategic planning and

coordination. Mission monitoring.

Cloud Relay™ for Real Time

comms with deployed assets,

being part of the same MANET.

Established via SATCOM and

dedicated hub for

audio/video/data comms, with

additional fully integrated

3G/4G/5G UMTS or LTE

capabilities (VMF certified).

Real time Comms with Homeland Crisis

Room

Decision to send a SF team to seize the

Insurgent Leader

Special Forces assets receive order from TOC to go in

action

During the deployment the assets on the ground keep full

situation awareness of their position, activity, biomarkers.

The Homeland Crisis Room and TOC know where all the

assets are, hear what they hear, see what they see, in real

time, by means of the integration of multiple

communication channels managed under a command core

engine.

At any time the assets communicate via the best channel, in

a user transparent way and keep focused on delivering their

mission.

The GFC and the entire

platoon are able to

access a precise

mapping (Cat1 MrSID)

and elevation (DTED L-2

2) along with callsigns,

positions, bio status,

video of the entire

personnel via the Safe

Strike battlefield

management system

connected to the

network in use.

Also, the TOC and HCR is

receiving the same

information as the GFC

is forwarding them

encrypted on the server

via the network.

The tactical drone is

controlled by the users

enabled within the net.

The video is accessed by

the entire platoon via

MANET network and the

camera is controlled and

adjusted accordingly by

the users.

The Squad Commanders were able to visualize

the personnel not in line of sight via the AR

capability.

While the platoon was entering within

the village and all the Squad

Commanders had a detailed situational

awareness.

Special Force assets enter AO Search for Insurgent Leader

SafeStrike Artificial Intelligent engine identifies suspect from

Coaliton database

Info sent back to HCRand TOC and disseminated to

deployed assets according to pre-established need to know

criteria

HCR take strategic decision in coordination with TOC and

task deployed assets to execute it.

Suspect Insurgent Leader seized

Suspect further identified by other biomarkers

Suspect vital constants monitored via HRM & other

wearable biosensors

Convoy under attack Sniper detection and engagement

Real time evaluation of the fulfilment of the Rules of

Engagement

Forensic evidence

Blue Force, Green Force and Red Force Tracking

Target designation

Call For Fire request

CAS request (other options CCA, ECAS, etc..)

MEDEVAC request

Complete situation awareness for deployed assets,

TOC and HCR

Complete integration with Coalition Force

JTAC creates the 5-line CCA

format for the Attack

Helicopter without inputting

any number, defines the

ammunition/target, attack

heading graphically and sends

the form to the AH.

The Air Mission Commander

receives the format and

visualized the Close Combat

Attack on the map directly with

no requirements to input. Time

of CCA process 8 seconds.

The JTAC would be able to sent

in the same way a Close Air

Support 9-line, a MEDEVAC

request or a Call for Fire.

TOC and HCR are seeing the

same pictures, receiving the

same data, recording the

same mission.

The convoy safely arrives at the

Coalition Base – Post mission

After Action Review

Full mission playback (video, data,

tracks, engagements)

Concurrent analysis from all involved

assets via Cloud Relay™ and Wave

Relay™ comms and SafeStrike AI Layer

Wave Relay™ MPU5 and SafeStrike™ can be used to network the battlefield.

Voice, Video and Data can be streamed across the MANET network and displayed on

any kind of devise, allowing the establishment of fast, secure and robust

communications across any element of the deployed assets being part of the same

MANET and including with homeland assets via Cloud Relay™ technology.

The Wave Relay™ RoIP and SafeStrike multiplatform capabilities enable existing in

service radio to be integrated, allowing users to talk out of multiple systems directly

from an MPU5.

ISR video receivers already in use can be connected to the MPU5/SafeStrike

network making the video accessible to the whole network.

Unmanned systems (UAV, UGV) can be connected to the network managing the on

board sensors available to the whole network. UGVs/UAVs can be controlled directly

from SafeStrike.

SafeStrike pair with Wave Relay™ MPU5 offers the warfigthers unmatched tools for

planning, precision targeting, and mission delivery.

• System integration of a complete suite of advanced communication solutions.

• State of the art technologies, scalable and fully tailorable to present and future needs of our Armed

Forces.

• Combat proven ITAR free solutions (Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Mali, Lebanon, Somalia)

• Strong international collaboration

Available today - Experimentation already in progress with

Ready for BRIEX 2035
