The Ivan Bohun Brigade has successfully tested the HIMERA G1 PRO radios, achieving reliable communication over a distance of 45 km without additional equipment. This was reported by the manufacturer, Himera Radios.
According to the company, the tests utilized a mesh communication mode. In this mode, each radio simultaneously receives and transmits signals, functioning as a relay.
This capability allows for data transmission and ensures stable communication in critical situations. Four HIMERA G1 PRO radios were used during the tests.
Developers explained that mesh communication is one of the key trends in modern tactical communications as it significantly expands the communication range.
In other words, signals can be transmitted to locations not directly visible from one or multiple transmitters. In this mode, the signal is not transmitted directly but is 'bounced' from one radio to another, allowing for the transmission of not just voice commands but also other data.
Thus, using mesh communication enables soldiers to communicate effectively even in difficult terrain and when some nodes are lost.
Previously, the 'Chartia' brigade deployed the Himera communication system using drones, employing autonomous B1 relays and R1 relays with IP connectivity.
