This current situation highlights the importance of having secure, robust communications in our lives. We rely on it every day, now more than ever. Whether working from home, or the defence communications we provide to our customers, it defines the significance of delivering the mission critical, efficient and effective communication solutions that Network for the Sky provides.
During the COVID-19 crisis, we have made extra effort to maintain healthy customer relationships, even when we are unable to meet in person, taking a pragmatic approach to remain available and in contact. Developments in Airborne capabilities continue, with resilience and security at the heart of what Network for the Sky delivers.
Demonstrating airborne capability enhancements
Our mantra “Seeing is believing” remains the same. It’s important to demonstrate how new Airbus technologies can help our customers achieve their vision. The team have been striving to create exciting developments which enhance airborne communications node capabilities. The ability to use airborne assets as communication nodes within the network significantly increases operational flexibility and situational awareness during a mission. The addition of airborne nodes increases the opportunity to connect and extends the range of the satellite link. Data links management advancements and enhanced network resiliency are things to look out for.
Mission critical communications systems for UAVs
Following the LTE customer demonstration carried out last summer, our team in Élancourt, France have been developing an option for smaller UAV’s. With a reduced SWaP (Size Weight and Power) and additional features, this evolution transforms a UAV into an LTE ad-hoc network provider.
Modern connectivity solutions are an integral part of UAV design and build. Network for the Sky solutions deliver the mission critical communications allowing these aircraft to be used to their full potential, safely and securely, whatever the environment.
