Introduction

Sichuan Province is located in the southwest of China. There are still many mountainous areas and forests. Forest fire prevention is a very important need. IWAVE cooperates with forest fire departments to provide professional wireless Mobile ad-hoc networks to help them establish wireless communication networks to ensure that when a forest fire occurs, there can be interference-free communication between firefighters and between firefighters and the command center, ensuring full coverage of fire rescue in the last mile, improving rescue efficiency during the rescue process, and ensuring the safety of firefighters.

The construction of public networks in mountainous areas is difficult, with low returns on investment, few users, and no economies of scale. Therefore, the professional wireless mobile communication equipment provided by our company is a good supplement to emergency rescue. Emergency communications require immediate wireless communications at any location and at any time. The required solutions are characterized by rapid deployment and rapid coverage , and stable communication effects at the last kilometer of the rescue site.

The RCS-1 Portable Moblie Ad hoc Network Radio Emergency Box includes a Portable Tactical VHF MANET Radio Base Station with a 20W transmission power, a portable handle, a compact and portable body, and a standard portable antenna. It can be carried with you at any time and supports rapid deployment and extension of on-site networking. Even in scenarios without satellite synchronization signals, it can work directly to assist the on-site network to extend to blind spots such as dense forest, underground, and tunnels. With a built-in large-capacity battery, it can be used for a long time in various extreme occasions, providing reliable emergency communication guarantees for the site.

The solution we provide to the Forest Fire Department is to use Solar Powered Radio Base Station, which is set up at a high point in the forest area to ensure the communication of daily patrol security personnel in the forest area. Equipped with RCS-1 portable ad hoc network emergency box, when a forest fire occurs, the fire brigade is dispatched to rescue, ensuring stable voice communication between members at the rescue site, and between the fire brigade at the rescue site and the command center of the Fire Brigade in the rear. The portable emergency box is a rapid deployment extension of the conventional network.

The RCS-1 Portable Moblie Ad hoc Network Radio Emergency Box also includes 8units handheld Digital Radio Defensor-T4. The handheld Digital Radio adopts an innovative integrated die-cast structure of light aluminum alloy and plastic, with a longitudinal elliptical shape, comfortable hand curvature, sturdiness and durability, and a high protection level. It can be equipped with standard batteries or large-capacity batteries and an external power supply socket . It is the simplest and lightest charging supporting equipment, with very strong adaptability to emergency communication occasions and easy transportation.

It can achieve flexible networking . Multiple self-organizing base stations can automatically form wireless networks to form an emergency communication network with a single frequency point as the wireless link, and provide signal relay for standard PDT/DMR/analog radio stations through internal same-frequency relay forwarding. Base station networking is not limited by link resources and can be flexibly deployed.

The base station can complete automatic addressing and networking within one minute after being turned on, and undertake the communication coverage relay work. In a very short time, it can realize rapid networking between multiple PDT/DMR self-organizing network base stations, and between PDT/DMR self-organizing network base stations and single-frequency self-organizing network base stations, achieve strong signal coverage, and ensure smooth communication.

Defensor-T4 is a general-purpose handheld Digital Radio with moderate size and weight. It is compatible with various communication standards and has complete functions to meet the communication needs of forest fire departments.

After the firefighters arrive at the scene, they quickly deploy a portable base station, with each member equipped with a Defensor-T4 and there is no limit on the number of people. They can connect and communicate as soon as they are turned on, and the portable emergency box is equipped with a backup lithium battery to ensure all-weather communication.

At the same time, our company also provides a voice integrated dispatch system that displays maps, dispatch, management, and other screens in real time. The on-site commander can grasp the on-site situation from multiple angles, and can achieve functions such as calling, answering , and cluster intercom , ensuring the very important command and dispatch function during the rescue process.

Portable Moblie Ad hoc Network Radio Emergency Box enhances interoperability between military and public safety forces. It provides end users with Mobile ad-hoc networks for a self-healing, mobile and flexible network.

For emergency rescue team or military troops on-the-move who require better flexibility, easy to carry and rapid deployment in their operations and tactical communications.

IWAVE provided Portable Tactical VHF MANET Radio Base Station and the handheld Digital Radios which can meet their demand.

 

Advantages

Rapid Deployment and Easy to Carry for Emergency Rescue and Fast Moving

Rapid deployment, installation within 10 minutes, to achieve the effect of covering the last mile.

RCS-1 is Robustly featured, portable type for users on the move, adopting Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (‘MANET’) for the transfer of data between moving groups of devices with to meet long range, good mobility and availability demands of urgent disaster rescue response and military communications application.

Strong Anti-damage Ability with Self-healing

RCS-1is the ruggedized solution for rapidly deploying a resilient network able to relay transmissions via the best available traffic path and frequency in real-time. RCS-1 is the most advanced multi-radio nodes and are easily installed to seamlessly scale a Mesh network to any number of nodes, all with extremely low overhead.

Higher Level of Communication Security

IWAVE uses their own modulation and mechanism and supports customized encryption for the audio communication. Each handheld radio is encrypted by IWAVE's own algorithm of the vocoder to avoid the hacker to monitor the audio.

Forest fire prevention and emergency rescue require advanced technology, as mission requirements change rapidly, quickly bringing order to chaos. When special events occur, first responders must be able to communicate in an emergency, reliably and without any security threats.

Conclusion

That’s why IWAVE focuses on developing robust, anti-damage, secure and reliable tactical communication solutions. IWAVE MANET communication radios provide a resilient communication network that connects all devices –Handhelds, Manpack repeaters, solar powered base station, portable base stations and voice integrated dispatch consoles.

Our wireless temporary network systems are rugged, compact, lightweight, and designed for today's disaster relief sites. They are also built on simulcast technologies that are battle-tested and customer-proven for mission-critical communications
