MAN-IC Interference Cancellation
 MAN-IA Interference Avoidance

MANET Interference Avoidance (MAN-IA) senses interference within the

network footprint and automatically switches the network to a better
alternate channel.

This new optional Spectrum Dominance feature was designed to allow

tactical users to operate through intentional or unintentional interference
at operational tempo. For example, MAN-IA can react sufficiently quickly
to the onset of a jammer that the network maintains a glitch-free video
stream.

The MAN-IA user interface within the StreamScape GUI allows great
flexibility in configuring MAN-IA for specific applications. Channels can be
defined within the band(s) that the radio supports, providing autonomous
frequency agility over several GHz of frequency range.

The MAN-IA function can provide a graphical representation of the current

performance of the network at each radio and on each channel. This
assessment allows the operator to visualize the state of the network, and
provides the ability to localize the sources of interference.
 MAN-IA Interference Avoidance

Constantly monitors the RF environment throughout the network,

and quickly changes the entire network to a cleaner frequency.

 One network for all of your assets
Silvus StreamCaster radios can be used on manned and unmanned airborne and ground vehicles,
and provide video streaming from body-worn, pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ), and spotting scope cameras to
provide situational awareness to any authorized team member with a connection to the network.
 Convoy Operations

Convoy safety and effectiveness can be increased by equipping vehicles with StreamCaster radios,
cameras, and GPS receivers. This will enable team commanders to see the video streams and GPS
location of all team members.

If aerial assets are deployed and equipped with cameras and Silvus radios, operators in the
vehicles can view the video stream from the airborne camera. This is very effective to avoid
ambushes, and enable accurate interdiction of target groups and vehicles.
 Armored Vehicle Voice/Video/Data Network

With our StreamCaster Radios, each vehicle is part of a self-forming, self-healing, high-performance
mesh network. This network can provide up to 85 Mbps of data throughput to support HD cameras,
multiple talk groups, Radio Over IP (ROIP) solutions, GPS location of all vehicles, and data capabilities
to support a wide range of tactical applications. Every vehicle is a repeater, enabling extension of the
network and providing connectivity in BLOS and/or hostile environments.

can be be deployed from boarding craft onto suspect vessels.
Boarding craft would connect to the boarding team via SC4200
mesh nodes, and all video streams viewed on mesh-enabled
viewing unit equipped with PTT audio capabilities.
Primary vessel would receive all video streams, GPS locations,
and have PTT audio capabilities via SC4200 series radio
onboard. This radio could be connected to ship SATCOM
system to enable monitoring of video, GPS locations, and audio
PTT at remote HQ.
Manned and Unmanned aerial assets equipped with Silvus
radios could also interact with the mesh network to either
provide aerial camera downlinks to command staff, or serve as
range extender / relay as needed.

 UAS Integration

Many UAS manufacturers are using Silvus radios for their video,
telemetry, and control links, making integration very easy.
Additionally, we can easily integrate the majority of unmanned
systems into our tactical mesh networks to enable sharing of the
video streams with other users via use of external encoders, or
directly accessing the IP stream at the ground station.

Above are some of images of integration utilizing Silvus’ OEM module. Customers will
marry them up to daughter/carrier boards with computing power for command, control,
telemetry, or sensor data/fusion requirements. Once the design is created and the boards
are properly synced, airframe location and placement must be considered for weight &
balance, cooling, and spacing with respect to antennas and other avionics.
