Accipiter Systems Awarded Contract to Investigate a Next Generation WDM System
Accipiter Systems has been awarded a contract to investigate a next generation WDM system. Under this contract, Accipiter Systems will investigate the use of WDM techniques to implement next generation systems. This contract explores the impact of WDM capabilities on these systems.
The Technology Collaborative Awards Recent Round of Funding
The Technology Collaborative has awarded a grant to Accipiter Systems. Accipiter Systems proposed research develops an algorithm which performs predictive switchover between multiple, diverse wireless links. Predictive switchover provides a more available wireless communications system by evaluating the performance of the current link in order to switch to an alternate prior to link failure. This research is in response to government agencies and commercial industries that require enhanced wireless communications to implement public safety systems, secure installations, and acquire status from field equipment. State-of-the-art wireless networking uses single link technologies that can be disrupted by environmental factors or can be obstructed by buildings, foliage, hills, or other structures. Agencies such as Homeland Security and FEMA require the ability to deploy wireless networks, with higher availability than is currently available, during crisis situations, such as terrorist attacks or natural disasters, in order to coordinate operations.
Accipiter Systems, Inc. Granted Funding from eBizITPA for Advanced IT Development Assistance
The Center for eBusiness and Advanced IT (eBizITPA) has awarded advanced IT development assistance funding to Accipiter Systems, Inc., in order to help further Accipiter's data communications systems product development plan.
The Technology Collaborative awards grant to Accipiter Systems
Accipiter Systems has been awarded a grant by the Technology Collaborative to develop a Hybrid Wireless Link. The proposed research will demonstrate the control of a robot over the Hybrid Wireless Link at a robot test range in Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh Digital Greenhouse awards grant to Accipiter Systems
Accipiter Systems has been awarded a grant by the Pittsburgh Digital Greenhouse for OPNET Modeling and simulation of Large Scale MPLS Computer Networks. The proposed research will analyze and complete three worst cases, large scale MPLS simulation scenarios.
Lockheed Martin selects Accipiter Systems to help develop advanced network
Accipiter Systems has been chosen by Lockheed Martin Maritime Systems & Senors - Akron to help develop and demonstrate a prototype network that combines the throughput capacity of free space optical communications with the reliability of radio frequency communications to support the needs of the warfighter. The network is being developed for the Advanced Technology Office of the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA), Arlington, Virginia through the Air Force Research Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.
Accipiter Systems awarded a grant from the Pittsburgh Digital Greenhouse
The Pittsburgh Digital Greenhouse has awarded Accipiter Systems a grant for OPNET Modeling and Simulation of a Payload and Protocol Agnostic Switch Router. This proposed research develops models for a high capacity, payload and protocol agnostic switch router node, and then simulates MPLS running on a network built from these switch router nodes. OPNET Modeler is the industry's leading network technology development environment, allowing for the design and study of communication networks, devices, protocols, and applications.
