Comtech Telecommunications Corp., a global communications technology leader, today announced the launch of the Company’s new multipath radio platform. As the first-ever terrestrial high data rate over-the-horizon integrated radio of its kind, MPR will empower first responders, warfighters, and commercial operators with new high data rate communications capabilities on a single antenna agnostic platform.
Built on the proven success of Comtech’s next-generation Troposcatter systems, the MPR platform’s multimode functionality, diverse antenna support, and advanced signal processing techniques empower users to establish secure, reliable and resilient communications links in challenging environments where traditional radios struggle. Today, MPR supports line-of-sight, obstructed-line-of-sight, and beyond-line-of-sight scenarios.
“Comtech’s MPR is optimized for on-the-move, at-the-halt, and fixed applications in a flexible, low Size Weight and Power terrestrial over-the-horizon communications platform,” said Daniel Gizinski, President of Comtech’s Satellite and Space Communications Segment. “MPR’s functionality and ease of use is a true game-changer for end users, demonstrating the ability to be set up and deployed in less than 10 minutes as well as delivering industry-leading data rates continuously over long distances. The software-defined nature of Comtech’s MPR platform also enables the system to adapt and incorporate new capabilities over time.”

In the past, terrestrial BLOS communications systems were limited due to large size, high-power requirements, and complexity of operation. Leveraging over 40 years of multipath radio technology leadership, Comtech’s MPR is revolutionizing high data rate communications capabilities by providing a rapidly deployable, transportable, low SWAP solution for military and commercial operators.
