Transmission performance and range

The outstanding performance of the sub2G SDR module results in a transmission range of up to 20 kilometers under optimal conditions, a substantial improvement over standard communication systems. This exceptional range is made possible by the use of sub2G frequencies specially optimized for long-distance propagation and obstacle penetration.

Transmission quality remains consistent throughout the range thanks to adaptive algorithms that automatically adjust power, modulation, and coding parameters based on link conditions. This adaptability ensures reliable communication even in the presence of obstacles, interference, or adverse weather conditions that would affect conventional communication systems.

Business applications and use cases

Large-scale surveillance missions

For extended surveillance missions, the sub2G SDR module transforms operational capabilities by allowing a reliable communication link to be maintained over very long distances. Border surveillance operations, extensive infrastructure monitoring and maritime surveillance directly benefit from this exceptional reach that eliminates traditional geographical constraints.

The hybrid transmission ensures continuity of communication even during transitions between rural and urban areas, enabling continuous monitoring missions without link interruptions. This capability is particularly valuable for public safety operations that require real-time monitoring and constant coordination with command centers.

Search and rescue operations

In the field of search and rescue, reliable communication can be critical to the success of operations and the safety of teams. The sub2G SDR module ensures a robust communication link even in the harshest environments: mountainous areas, dense forests, disaster areas where communication infrastructure can be damaged.

The communication redundancy offered by hybrid SDR/4G transmission ensures that at least one communication channel remains available even in the event of partial network failures. This reliability is essential for coordinating rescue teams, transmitting critical information and maintaining liaison with rescue coordination centres.

Industrial Applications & Infrastructure Inspection

Industrial applications requiring the inspection of large infrastructures such as pipelines, high-voltage power lines or offshore installations particularly benefit from the module’s exceptional range. The ability to maintain reliable communication over long distances allows linear infrastructure to be inspected without the need for frequent repositioning of ground crews.

For offshore operations and missions in remote areas, hybrid transmission ensures connectivity even in the absence of a terrestrial communication infrastructure. This communication autonomy transforms inspection and preventive maintenance possibilities in traditionally hard-to-reach environments.

Integration and configuration

Module Installation and Configuration

The integration of the sub2G SDR module into the DJI RC Plus 2 ecosystem has been designed to be seamless and intuitive. The module connects directly to the RC Plus 2 Enterprise Enhanced remote control via a dedicated interface that ensures native integration with all existing communication systems. This plug-and-play approach eliminates configuration complexities while maintaining optimal performance.

Automatic module configuration automatically detects environmental conditions and optimizes transmission parameters for local conditions. This embedded intelligence greatly simplifies operational implementation while ensuring optimal performance from the first use. Operators can focus on their mission without worrying about the technical aspects of communication.

Intelligent transmission mode management

The module’s intelligent management system continuously monitors the quality of the various available communication channels and automatically selects the optimal mode according to the conditions. This switching intelligence takes into account signal quality, latency, available bandwidth , and mission-specific requirements to optimize the user experience.

Adaptive algorithms learn from local conditions and usage patterns to anticipate switching needs and optimize mode transitions. This predictive approach minimizes communication interruptions and improves the fluidity of operations, especially critical for missions requiring continuous video transmission or real-time commands.

Operational and economic benefits

Expanding mission capabilities

The adoption of the sub2G SDR module radically transforms mission capabilities by eliminating the range constraints that traditionally limit drone operations. Teams can now plan missions at very large scale without the need for frequent repositioning of ground teams or the establishment of intermediate communication infrastructures.

This extension of scope translates into a significant improvement in operational efficiency : reduction of deployment times, reduction of logistical requirements, increase in the area covered per mission. These efficiencies reduce operational costs while improving the quality of services provided to customers.

Reliability and continuity of service

The communication redundancy offered by hybrid transmission eliminates the risk of link loss that could compromise mission safety or result in the loss of critical data. This increased reliability makes it possible to accept assignments in more challenging environments and offer service guarantees that conventional systems cannot match.

The continuity of service provided by the module makes it possible to meet the most demanding contractual commitments and to offer premium service levels that justify higher rates. This qualitative differentiation is a decisive competitive advantage in professional markets where reliability takes precedence over cost.

Security and regulatory compliance

Communications Security and Encryption

The sub2G SDR module incorporates advanced security systems that protect the integrity and confidentiality of communications. Military-grade encryption protocols ensure that transmitted data remains secure even if intercepted, meeting the security requirements of government applications and sensitive industries.

Authentication mechanisms ensure that only authorized devices can establish a communication link, preventing the risk of hacking or malicious interference. This enhanced security is essential for public safety, defense, and critical infrastructure inspection applications.
