The Dynamic Spectrum Alliance (DSA) announced that RADWIN, Federated Wireless and Saankhya Labs have joined the Alliance, as it continues to advocate for laws and regulations that will lead to more efficient spectrum utilisation.

President of the DSA, Kalpak Gude, said: “The DSA is always looking for organisations who share our vision, so I’m thrilled to welcome RADWIN, Federated Wireless and Saankhya Labs to the Alliance.”

“These three organisations are all dedicated to implementing alternative ways to enable service providers to reach remote customers all over the world. It’s important to remember that this is a global issue that affects millions of people, from the U.S to Mozambique to India.”

RADWIN has joined the DSA shortly after submitting a ‘Petition for Rulemaking’ to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It asks that the FCC change its rules to allow point-to-multipoint devices in the U-NII-1 and U-NII-3 bands, that use sequential multiple directional beam technology to operate with the same effective isotropic radiated power as point-to-point transmitters in those bands.

“The DSA supported this filing as the requested rule change could permit service providers to reach more remote customers from the same base station site,” explained Gude. “This therefore reduces the cost of deployment and improves the ability of service providers to reach areas that lack high Internet connectivity speeds.”

Saankhya Labs is an industry leader in software defined radios (SDR), which have been adopted and installed by Wireless Internet Service Providers in the U.S, Singapore, India and the Philippines. The SDRs have achieved demonstrated broadband speeds of 10 Mbps over a distance exceeding 10km without line of sight requirements.
