WiRo: Wireless Router and Modem

Oct 02, 2024 |2 min read

Introduction of WiRo

At INTRASENSORS BV, we're tackling one of today’s most pressing digital challenges: the lack of reliable internet access in rural and remote areas. Despite the rapid expansion of digital technology, millions of people in non-urban regions—including rural communities, small towns, remote factories, and coastal areas—still suffer from unreliable internet due to infrastructure gaps and geographic obstacles. While traditional internet access perform well in urban environments, they fall short in these underserved areas, deepening the digital divide.

Expanding infrastructure through increased Base Transceiver Station (BTS) coverage presents both economic and ecological challenges, as it is not only expensive but also contributes to environmental concerns, including CO2 emissions. The absence of dependable connectivity limits access to vital services, economic participation, and social inclusion for millions. With demand for digital services on the rise, a sustainable and efficient solution is more critical than ever.

Our answer to this challenge is WiRo—a Wireless Router/Modem designed specifically to meet the connectivity needs of rural and remote areas. WiRo is equipped with a cutting-edge 360° antenna array that uses MIMO 2x2 technology and an integrated modem, capable of detecting the strongest BTS signal and aligning the high-gain antenna for optimal performance without mechanical rotation. This ensures fast, stable, and reliable internet access in regions where conventional technology struggles.

 

 

Key Features of WiRo

 

  • 360° Azimuth Coverage Antenna Array: At the heart of WiRo’s design is its advanced antenna array, providing complete 360° coverage. This enables the device to capture signals from any direction, ensuring the best possible connection even in areas with limited cellular infrastructure.

  • High-Gain Directional Dual-Band Antennas with MIMO 2x2 Technology: WiRo incorporates high-gain, dual-band antennas that support MIMO 2x2 technology, significantly improving both signal strength and quality. This boosts connectivity speed and reliability, even in low-signal environments.

  • Signal Optimization Algorithm: A proprietary algorithm continuously monitors and optimizes signal strength and quality, ensuring that WiRo remains connected to the most efficient BTS. This automated process eliminates the need for manual adjustments and guarantees seamless connectivity, even in fluctuating network conditions.

  • Satellite Transceiver Backup: When cellular networks are unavailable or inadequate, WiRo switches to its built-in satellite transceiver, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity. This hybrid system makes WiRo an ideal solution for extremely remote or off-grid locations, where conventional internet infrastructure is scarce or unreliable.
