When: Monday, May 09th, 2022 (the day before the start of the conference)

Where: NH Collection Nürnberg City, Bahnhofstr. 17-19, 90402 Nuremberg

IP Telemetry with MIMO technology

The Short Course will be held by Silvus Technologies.
This course introduces radio networks that utilize MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) and Mesh Networks and the underlying fundamentals for operating and optimizing such networks.  Topics such as RF basics and Antenna selections, TCP/IP, and Multicast will be covered.  In addition, some common use cases and CONOPS will be examined with suggestions for planning, implementation, and optimization in those real-world scenarios.  These will mostly be related to aircraft and UAS operations, and will cover link budgeting, frequency planning, and more.  Finally, a short demo of the Silvus Streamcaster radio will be presented, along with the special feature of Interference Avoidance (MAN-IA).

Important information

The Short Course will be free for all conference participants.
It will take place if enough registrations for it are made before end of March: when registering for ettc2022, don't forget to add the free ticket for the Short Course!
