April 2, 2012, Portland, OR ?Sonetics Corporation announced today that it has been granted U.S. patent number 8,126,492 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The patent describes improved vehicle crew communication technology and systems employing multiple wireless headsets using DECT protocols. The patented technology allows the use of multiple headsets with a single wireless base station, extends wireless communication range, facilitates full-duplex communication over multiple encrypted links from a single base station, avoids interference between multiple headsets through automatic channel selection and optimizes noise-cancelling microphone performance for each headset?s digital channel connection.
Sonetics has created and deployed next-generation rugged and reliable wireless solutions using its patented technology for tens of thousands of users in extreme environments worldwide, including firefighters, emergency responders, military personnel and commercial aviation ground support crews. Most recently, the company launched Apex and Triton wireless team communication solutions for markets such as construction, crane operations, utilities and marine operations.
?Sonetics pioneered the development of completely wireless rugged headsets and systems for use in firefighting and rescue applications,? said Sonetics? Chief Operating Officer, Reed Stager. ?Now the second generation of that technology is being deployed in aviation, military, commercial, industrial, construction and other communication-challenged environments. The granting of this patent underscores Sonetics? mission to create innovative wireless systems, helping teams communicate more effectively to increase productivity and ensure the safety of all crew members.?
Sonetics? Firecom division customers have already benefited from the patented technology as it is used in new 50-Series wireless headsets and intercom systems.
