Video linkAirborne

iMOD/NG

IP video / data transmitter

Airborne H.264 video and data transmitter. 430–2700 MHz, 20 Mbps, AES-256, about 150 ms end to end.

Problem: The operator loses the picture the moment a jammer covers the video band, or the feed lags so much that the aircraft cannot be flown by camera.
Solution: The crew can move the video channel anywhere in 430–2700 MHz during flight. Latency stays near 150 ms and the stream is AES-256 encrypted IP video that any ground software can consume.

Video linkGround

DEMOD/NG

Digital H.264 video receiver

Ground H.264 video receiver with dual RF input. Sensitivity to −140 dBm in the lab, Ethernet / USB / SPI output, 58 g.

Problem: At long range or in interference the picture breaks up, and legacy receivers need extra boxes to get video into mission software.
Solution: Two RF inputs for antenna diversity and lab-tested sensitivity down to −140 dBm hold the link longer. Video leaves the board as IP over Ethernet or USB, straight into the ground station.

Control linkAirborne and ground

NV/5

FHSS control modem

Frequency-hopping control and telemetry modem in the 433 / 868 MHz ISM bands. Up to 300 kbps, AES-256, Ethernet / UART, 22 g. One unit on each side of the link.

Problem: When control and video share one channel, one jammer takes both. The aircraft must stay commandable even while the video link is under attack.
Solution: NV/5 runs command and telemetry on its own frequency-hopping sub-GHz link, independent of the wideband video channel. Hopping is automatic across the configured band and every frame is AES-256 encrypted.

IntegrationAirborne

Hub Board V5.0

Bus and protocol conversion

15 g interface board that converts between the buses used on the platform and gives the radios one interface to the flight controller and payload.

Problem: Autopilot, payload and radios speak different buses. Wiring them together takes weeks of integration work and adds cables and failure points to the airframe.
Solution: The Hub Board sits in the middle. It converts protocols and physical interfaces so iMOD/NG, NV/5, the flight controller and the payload connect through one board with standard connectors.

Booster SubGHz

RF power amplifier

10 W sub-GHz power amplifier, 19 dB gain, in a shielded milled aluminium enclosure. Extends the NV/5 control link range from the ground station. 133 g.

Problem: Control range is limited by the modem's own output. At long distance or in heavy interference, ground antennas alone cannot close the link.
Solution: The booster adds 19 dB of gain to the NV/5 ground unit, up to 10 W output, in an enclosure that keeps the amplifier's own emissions away from the receivers next to it.
