Our success stories
SkyWave ISat M2M
- Calian developed all components of the system, including the channel units, which were deployed as modulator and demodulator PCI cards installed into a rack-mountable Linux server running Calian-developed air interface traffic processing and management software.
- This innovative software-based satellite modem design is a key feature of the system and allows Calian to deliver gateways with custom air interfaces in short timeframes.
SkyWave ISatData Pro
- The air interface subsystem consisted of modulators, demodulators, purpose-built air interface processing software, IF interface equipment and racking.
- Calian designed and manufactured the multi-functional, multi-channel, narrow bandwidth channel units for the system.
- Designed to support the evolution of the air interface and to enable the ongoing improvement of gateway performance, the channel units and corresponding process software are easily maintainable and highly extensible.
- The FPGA-based channel unit cards perform modulation in the transmit direction and digitization in the return direction.
- Demodulation is implemented in software executing on modem interface computers equipped with graphical processor units for accelerating the iterative algorithms.
- Additionally, the processing software, designed to be highly available and highly scalable, executes on a cluster of MICs that can be dynamically resized to meet growing demand or to provide improved redundancy.
