Raptor for Government and Defense Communications

Raptor 11 provides fast, reliable delivery of digital media for a variety of mission-critical applications—even in the most challenging network conditions. For defense organizations that must communicate in extreme battlefield conditions, Raptor enhances the speed, range, reliability and efficiency of any data network, whether on the ground or in the air. DF Raptor in Military Communications describes how Raptor technology works and its application to military network communications architectures.

Raptor for tactical communications: Improved accuracy, even in extreme conditions

Today’s network-centric defense communications systems rely on a mix of wired, wireless and satellite networks to deliver mission-critical information. Accurate and timely delivery is critical to making informed decisions in the field, but battlefield conditions present some of the most challenging environments for digital media delivery and communications. Limited bandwidth, high latency, fading, interference, and jamming can result in data being lost in transmission.

Raptor powers defense system solutions that improve the reliability of tactical communications, provide faster delivery of critical data and ensure reliable delivery of digital media even in the most extreme conditions. Solutions powered by Raptor, the world’s most advanced forward error correction technology (FEC), are giving military decision-makers the accurate information they need to succeed in the field. For interoperability with government and defense solutions, use Raptor 11.

Raptor technology can be deployed in military applications such as:

  • Wireless sensor networks
  • Ad-hoc video surveillance
  • In-theater telemetry
  • Database updates
  • Mesh and/or disconnection-tolerant networking
  • MASINT, HUMINT, and SIGINT intelligence
  • Mobile TOC connectivity

Raptor FEC technology is also being used by government agencies to share large data files between numerous remote sites, ensuring efficient and accurate operations across multiple organizations.
