:: Overview




APOLLO is an innovative software product coming to revolutionize the wireless backhaul market by delivering unparalleled performance and advanced QoS over standard WIFI hardware.

Facts about WIFI Facts about APOLLO
Cost-efficient Hardware Applied over WIFI Hardware
Designed for indoor use Optimized for outdoor use
Lacks a deterministic QoS layer Implements Carrier-class QoS

APOLLO enables OEMs and ODMs to deliver wireless broadband backhaul solutions that are future-proof, robust and cost-efficient. The license free technology eliminates recurrent leased-line expenditures and license fees, enabling low-cost communications ideal for low ARPU.

Though 802.11 technologies operate in unlicensed bands, the deterioration of bandwidth in outdoor environments and the lack of a sophisticated QoS to deterministically control the air interface does not allow the application of this widespread technology to backhaul solutions.

Antcor's APOLLO proprietary technology is coping with the pitfalls of 802.11 by completely redesigning the MAC layer, achieving a combination of superior performance and sophisticated QoS over standard WIFI hardware. The key-concept is the implementation of an adaptive polling mechanism to dynamically allocate bandwidth in the direction needed, thus increasing link efficiency and greatly decreasing the impact that distance has on throughput of the link. Selective repeat ARQ technology and packet aggregation further increase performance unleashing the power of WIFI to outdoor environments.
