Octopus SDR Platform

SensorTec’s latest Octopus Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform has been designed using a state-of-the-art proprietary SDR technology specifically aimed at increasing link performance several-fold. Addressing challenges such as limited spectrum availability, growing interference and demands for yet more capacity, Spectrum 5 combines the best features from SensorTec’s well-proven MIMO 2×2 Link and Turbo families, as well as numerous cutting-edge wireless breakthroughs, to deliver unparalleled performance in all weather conditions. Spectrum 5 is based on the brand new Octopus SDR platform, making this family of PTP solutions fully future proof and allowing it to improve its PHY, MAC and upper layer features remotely via a simple firmware upgrade, including for units already deployed in the field.

Applications

Spectrum 5 can be deployed in a diverse range of applications, from backhauling for Wi-Fi and small cell to CCTV and video-surveillance infrastructures. It can also provide Internet access to remote locations.

Top Facts

Robustness

The Spectrum 5 solution offers significant cost savings when compared to other cabled and wireless solutions available in today’s marketplace. It is the first product from SensorTec Wireless designed primarily for the SOHO market and small service providers.

Optimal Performance in all Operational Conditions

Spectrum 5 supports 14 modulation-coding schemes, which makes it easily distinguishable from other solutions. Even when operating in high interference environments, Spectrum 5 dynamically selects the most suitable MCS for each polarization, and ensures the delivery of all packets transmitted using an advanced ARQ algorithm.

Interference Mitigation

Spectrum 5 has a number of built-in interference mitigation techniques. The Instant DFS technology allows automatic frequency channel change in case of congestion or radar detection, all achieved with zero outage. Thanks to its support of H-FDD (also known as split-frequency mode), it identifies and selects uplink and downlink channels independently.

Ease of Installation

Quick and ease of installation reduces field deployment costs and facilitate rapid service delivery.

Robustness

Guaranteed and stable connectivity even in the most adverse weather conditions, including extreme temperature ranges from -40° to +60°C, thunderstorms and wind speeds of up to 160 km/h.
