Introducing the most advanced, most scalable, and most efficient Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) system in the world, now in a SWaP-timized form factor: the Embedded Module. Integrate the Embedded Module into your products to unite UAVs, UGVs, and sensors on a single network. Because the Embedded Module features an HD video encoder and onboard computer, eliminate redundant equipment from your platform.

Replace separate and specialized equipment with a single Embedded Module that performs the same functions but takes up less space, weighs less, consumes less power, and costs fewer dollars and engineering hours to integrate. Leverage your SWaP savings to accomplish what matters most: the mission, time on station, and the payloads you carry.
A: UAVs, UGVs, and USVs from the world’s leading manufacturers rely on the Embedded Module for communications.
A: The Embedded Module eliminates the need for 3rd party video encoders, embedded computers, radios, serial-to-Ethernet devices, video datalinks, and storage devices.
By integrating the Embedded Module into your unmanned systems and sensors, you turn them into networked assets.
Each system with an Embedded Module extends the Wave Relay MANET, allowing your users to access services - such as video or sensor data - on any node from anywhere. In addition, unmanned systems and sensors from multiple manufacturers can now communicate on a common network, giving your products more opportunities to perform.
A: The Wave Relay MANET puts unmanned systems onto a common network to create a truly networked battlefield. A legacy datalink only connects the unmanned system to the operator. The Embedded Module is a form factor designed specifically for integrating the Wave Relay MANET into unmanned systems.
A: Yes, the Embedded Module enables your unmanned platform to run the Wave Relay MANET and fully participate in the self-forming, self-healing mobile network.
The Embedded Module brings your unmanned platform into the Wave Relay® Ecosystem, where all UAVs, UGVs, sensors, and systems are networked. MPU5 radio users can now operate your platforms, watch your video feeds, and steer your cameras. By establishing a network of unmanned systems, swarming, autonomy, and collaborative behaviors are now possible. The sky is no longer the limit.
A: Our vision of a networked battlefield is a common network that unites large numbers of unmanned systems and sensors, empowering teams of warfighters to complete their missions.
A: Every user on the Wave Relay MANET can access sensor data and run the unmanned system control app on their MPU5 and control it via their Rugged Display & Controller (RDC).
Because the Embedded Module is a computer, your unmanned systems have minds of their own. Run swarming algorithms directly onboard and use the peer-to-peer Wave Relay® MANET for optimized coordination. Program systems to move into position autonomously with real-time PLI data from every node for formation and collision avoidance. Process sensor data at the source to transmit knowledge instead of a raw data stream to use the Embedded Module as a sensor input to drive machine decisions without human input. Enter the future of unmanned systems.
A: The Wave Relay MANET is ideal for swarming of unmanned systems because it is a scalable, peer-to-peer network that operates under high mobility without requiring centralized control node.
A: The Embedded Module leverages Wave Relay Interference Resilience & Defense (IRD) for anti-jam and counter-EW. It has been tested against EW threats both domestically and in active combat operations.
The Embedded Module Development Kit contains the Embedded Module, a starter cable set, the board-to-board cable, external radio mounting tray, and design documentation (ICD, CAD & STEP files) your engineering team needs to integrate the Embedded Module into your design.
Test out the variety of integration options to see what works best for you and your product. Experiment, see the vision for yourself, and bring your product into the Wave Relay® Ecosystem.
A: Persistent offers the Embedded Module Integration Course (EMIC), which is designed to provide students the ability to successfully integrate Wave Relay Embedded Modules into a variety of platforms within a functioning Wave Relay MANET Ecosystem.
A: The Embedded Module is not a radio and must be paired with an RF Module. The Embedded Module is compatible with all RF Modules available from Persistent Systems.
