Our origins

Turning Disruptive Technologies into Products and Services

We have studied the evolution of computer and communications technology. Besides the improvements in computer and battery technology that enable the creation of smartphones and other portable computers, communication technology, particularly voice communication, has evolved as well. 

Historically, digital voice communication has relied on a technology called "time division multiplexing" or TDM. Digital mobile wireless phones use a system to provide a continuous, unbroken connection while in motion called the "hand-off." The hand-off is the seamless transfer of a phone's connection from one tower to another while in motion. The hand-off is the only method to provide continuous TDM wireless service.

Communications technology has evolved and relies on "packet technology," the transmission of separate, individual data units: the communications technology used by the Internet. Even voice communications has migrated to "packet technology." 

The equipment required to hand-off calls comprises 70 to 80 percent of the cost to provide mobile wireless service. 

In this new "packet oriented" communication environment our research and analysis has shown that by using "packet technology" we can create a wireless mobile system that does not require handing off calls. 

Eliminate the hand-off and the cost to provide wireless mobile service drops dramatically.
