THPR1039 is a 10 W (5 W per channel), L-Band, dual MIMO radio that
is used for long distance UAS Video and C2 links.
East Brunswick, NJ - May 6, 2022 - Triad RF Systems has secured a seven-figure
design and production order from a prominent South Asian aerospace and defense company
for the
THPR1039, Triad's new, DTC-based, high power radio system designed for use in
Group 2 UAS.
The THPR1039 is a 10 W (5 W per channel), L-Band, dual MIMO radio that
is used for long distance UAS Video and C2 links, which achieves RF link ranges
in excess of 50 km when used in both the ground and air radio segments. This unit
is an expansion of Triads High Power Radio System (THPR) product line. It combines
a DTC Solo8 MIMO radio, high power amplification, and custom filtering into a single,
easy to integrate package.
Group 2 UAS require the lightest payloads possible to maximize their flight endurance
and mission duration. For this aircraft, Triad was given a directive to minimize
the weight of the radio system. Triad's engineering met this challenge by designing
the THPR1039's housing from magnesium alloy, instead of the aluminum alloys traditionally
used for housing RF systems. A final weight of 32 oz. (908 g) was achieved
for the product, and amounted to a ~33% weight reduction compared with an aluminum-housed
unit.
This effort highlights our engineering group's continual focus on exploring new
ways to design RF systems. Innovation in materials, RF system design, and manufacturing
help Triad meet performance goals and SWaP limitations that keep Triad ahead of
the competition.
"When it comes to UAVs, every gram of payload matters." says Dean Handrinos,
co-founder/partner of Triad, "Our engineering team is not risk-averse when
it comes to meeting extremely stringent size and weight requirements. These efforts
are reflected in our products, as we deliver some of the smallest and lightest high
power RF systems in the industry."
