Echo 5G: Portal between Indoor and Outdoor Worlds

The Pivotal Echo 5G™ is a self-installable, on-the-window, precision beamforming repeater designed to counteract mmWave penetration, reflection, and structural shadowing losses so it can gently flood an interior with native mmWave signal.  Essentially, the Echo 5G acts as a portal between indoor and outdoor worlds.

For fixed wireless access (FWA) providers serving homes and enterprises, the Echo 5G facilitates Gigabit speeds and introduces superior broadband choice and experience to cable and DSL end users. For 5G connected devices, the Echo 5G enables outdoor-to-indoor signal transitions so users can ubiquitously enjoy the immersive 5G experiences that only mmWave capacity can deliver.

The Echo 5G product line accomplishes this using Pivotal’s patented Holographic Beam Forming® (HBF)  technology whose cost, size, weight and power consumption (C-SWaP) profile is significantly lower than phased array beamformers;  specifically, an order of magnitude less cost, less than half the weight and less than one third the power consumption.

With HBF, Echo 5G overcomes a major obstacle to cost-effectively delivering 5G broadband access to homes and businesses with mmWave – in-building penetration.

HBF inside Echo 5G
Subscriber Product

  • Enables Gigabit+ in-building 5G penetration at one kilometer, even at extreme angles of incidence.
  • Customer self-installable.
  • Increases subscribers per gNodeB ratio.
  • Counteracts reflection, penetration and shadowing losses.

HBF inside Pivot 5G
Network Product

  • Cost effectively extends, redirects and shapes 5G coverage on demand and with low latency.
  • Saves carriers base station deployment CAPEX and reduces ongoing OPEX.
  • Reduces siting cost and deployment time.
  • Grows network coverage organically with revenue.

HBF inside gNodeB

  • Combines lowest cost, size, weight and power consuming beamformer with near horizon scanning range to reduce gNodeB deployment costs and OPEX.
  • Lowers small cell profiles, increasing municipal acceptance.
  • ORAN & 3GPP compliant.

Pivotal Commware develops custom software, software-defined antennas and radios for network operators who want increased speed, capacity and spectral efficiency. Our breakthrough technology, Holographic Beam Forming ®, offers the necessary cost, size, weight and power consumption (C-SWaP) profile to make military grade beamforming viable for commercial markets.

5G

To keep pace with data demand, leading mobile operators anticipate the greater throughput and spectral efficiency associated with 5G beamforming. Cost-effective beamforming is here today using the lowest cost, size, weight and power solution available -- Holographic Beam Forming (HBF). Network densification is well underway, and HBF allows mobile operators to go beyond remote electronic down-tilt.  HBF slashes operating costs associated with ongoing coverage optimization.  The promise of self-optimizing networks -- SON -- is finally here.

Tactical Communications

Cost, Size, Weight and Power consumption – C-SWaP – are crucial factors in low observable and portable communications used by military and civilian markets.  Lowering costs is always important, but so is reducing Size, Weight and Power consumption, particularly for communicating with small drones.  HBF can reduce a drone’s radar profile and expand its range and utility on a single charge.
