The Need

Over the past decade the world has experienced phenomenal growth and penetration of mobile devices such as cell phones, PDAs and portable game consoles. At the same time, the emergence of multimedia mobile services has driven a growing need for bandwidth. These developments have resulted in a paradigm shift from centralized distribution of user applications to distributed information creation and dissemination. There is one common vision regardless of the device or service in question - each requires instant, infrastructure-free voice and data broadband networking with mobile devices. Maxtech Networks delivers this futuristic vision to the market today.

The Solution: Mobile Mesh Networks

The new network paradigm has created an ever-growing demand for self-forming, self-routing, self-healing and infrastructure-free networks. Maxtech Networks is the first company that provides a dynamic voice and data ad-hoc mobile mesh network at the end unit level. Possible peers include radio devices, cellular phones, gaming consoles and any other stationary or mobile appliance. Unlike existing mesh solutions that support limited mobility (relying on static nodes) and form ad-hoc connectivity for data-oriented applications, MaxTech’s breakthrough technology turns each device into part of a virtual infrastructure. Each unit in the virtual network acts as a relay for the other users in the group, extending coverage till the “last yard” and overcoming issues related to infrastructure dependency, blocked transmissions (walls, metal, dead-spots, climate, etc.) and out of range communication. Rather than simply extending the existing infrastructure, MaxTech creates a virtual infrastructure according to the users' locations.


MaxTech's patent-pending technology creates an ad-hoc self organized network that can dynamically switch from one bandwidth allocation to another with virtually unlimited number of users in any type of settings and surroundings without any single point of failure. Moreover, each and every unit in a network can be used as a gateway and may be connected to, or be integrated in, a VHF/UHF radio device, satellite modem/phone, cellular phone, IP hot spots, WiMAX devices and other existing communication device/infrastructure. All other units in the network can approach the gateway as part of the network resources with no delays or redundancy. The voice and data links between the users in a group are automatically formed and healed. These features, along with a very effective bandwidth allocation methods, allows for an instant, low-cost deployment and operation of a true mesh network with extremely high ROI per network/device.



MaxTech technology utilizes an optimized and proven hybrid ad hoc routing algorithm that combines both proactive and reactive routing techniques. This enables support of high speed mobility and unmatched scalability, while ensuring the highest level of network availability. The result is a high performance solution that automatically adapts to varying network conditions, degree of client mobility and relevant RF environmental conditions on a packet by packet basis.
