Record-Setting 80-Mile Terrestrial Mobile Troposcatter Communications Link Demonstrated by TrellisWare and TSC
Wednesday, March 25th, 2026A live demonstration was conducted before members of NATO’s BLOS Comms Capabilities Team, with representatives from multiple allied nations in attendance.
San Diego, CA, March 24, 2026 – TrellisWare Technologies, Inc., the global leader in resilient waveforms and interoperable tactical radios, today announced that the company, through its partnership with TSC, a high-technology company providing its customers with sensors, effectors, and solutions for communication, precision engagement, surveillance, and intelligence missions, has successfully demonstrated mobile, terrestrial troposcatter communications at an industry-best link distance exceeding 80 miles, transmitting real-time voice, Position Location Information (PLI) and video across mountainous terrain in San Diego, California.
“The success we demonstrated, definitively proves that mobile troposcatter can provide reliable, high-capacity communications across significant terrain obstacles if you’re working with the right provider,” said Marcus Tooker, Director of Commercial Products for TSC. “Our ability to sustain voice, video, and PLI connectivity over an 83-mile link, while in motion, underscores the operational flexibility, resilience, and the now proven nature of the joint capabilities between TrellisWare and TSC. And this can be done anywhere in the world.”
The demonstration, which utilized the TSC Mobile Tracking System 3.0 (MTS3.0), originated from TrellisWare’s headquarters in San Diego, California, and established a beyond-line-of-sight connection to a mobile vehicle 83 miles away in Westmorland, CA, over the broad Laguna Mountain range (altitude exceeding 5,200 feet); proving the value of TrellisWare’s advanced signal processing for troposcatter communications. Assuming the same transmit power and antenna gain, TrellisWare’s Advanced Constant Envelope-Troposcatter (ACE-T) waveform has a more than 1.5x link-distance advantage over other troposcatter waveforms.
The troposcatter link was also used to connect TrellisWare’s industry-best TSM™ MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc Network) on either side via a Multi-Network Bridge (MNB). This sets a record for an on-the-move troposcatter link in a terrestrial environment, which has substantially more challenging troposcatter propagation conditions than a maritime or littoral environment.
“Unlike traditional, fixed-site troposcatter systems, the solution we demonstrated with TSC was able to maintain connectivity even while the mobile unit traveled at speeds up to 30 miles per hour, despite the very narrow beamwidths of the high-gain antennas required to combat the large losses of a troposcatter link,” said Scott Enserink, Lead Engineer for Troposcatter Communications at TrellisWare.
Key Demonstration Highlights Include:
- On-the-move operation at speeds up to 30 mph.
- Live voice and video transmission.
- Bridging of two remote TSM MANET networks.
- Mountainous terrain obstruction.
- Real-time mapping and PLI updates on ATAK tablet.
- International defense and industry audience for portions of the testing.
“The fact that the system successfully delivered voice and video traffic and bridged two MANETs across the 83-mile path clearly demonstrates the operational viability of troposcatter for BLOS communications for expeditionary and maneuvering forces,” added COL (Ret.) Garth Winterle, the former US Army Project Manager for the Integrated Tactical Network and current Director of European Business Development for TrellisWare.
The event confirms that there is now a functional and proven solution for the increasing demand for resilient, beyond-line-of-sight communications capable of operating in contested, congested, satcom-denied, and infrastructure-limited environments.

Monday, March 23rd, 2026
Spectra Group (UK) Ltd, specialists in delivering secure, reliable and resilient beyond line-of-sight communications for operations in denied and contested environments, formally launches the production version of GENSS at the Satellite Show (Stand 2840). GENSS is an Evergreen software-defined tactical communications system shaped by operational experience and designed, engineered and manufactured in the UK. It delivers adaptable, efficient voice and data connectivity for distributed forces, with a system architecture designed to support capability evolution as operational requirements and technologies change. First introduced as a concept at the Mobile Deployable Communications conference in London in 2024, the system has since undergone extensive development, testing and refinement in collaboration with specialist user groups to ensure it meets the demands of modern distributed operations. The system has already attracted interest from NATO-aligned users; more news to follow soon.
GENSS extends tactical communications beyond the traditional line-of-sight “bubble”, enabling secure voice and data connectivity across challenging operational environments. The system currently supports secure L-Band tactical satellite networking (L-TAC) and beyond-line-of-sight voice and data communications, while also enabling MANET network extension and bridging to allow mission systems such as ATAK to operate across dispersed units. By combining efficient bandwidth usage, adaptive waveform techniques and low-power transmission methods, GENSS enables resilient communications for mobile forces operating in contested or denied environments and is designed to reduce the probability of detection and interception through low-power transmission and adaptive waveform techniques, enhancing its security and operational effectiveness.
Built as a software-defined system with modular architecture, GENSS is designed to support continuous capability evolution through software development, new waveforms and system integrations. The system builds on Spectra’s heritage in tactical satellite communications, including the widely deployed and award-winning SlingShot system, which enables L-Band satellite access for existing radios. GENSS extends this approach by acting as a network extension and integration system, allowing voice and mission data from multiple tactical systems to be securely distributed across beyond-line-of-sight networks. It has been designed and developed through a collaborative effort of tactical communication experts, seasoned military specialists and top-tier British scientists and engineers.
GENSS, combined with other Spectra Group products, delivers a robust layered communications network to support mission-critical headquarters and uncrewed systems over the horizon. Being a modular, hardware-agnostic radio system by design, it has proven to be operationally adaptable, providing excellent interoperability through straightforward software reprogramming, allowing it to adapt quickly and easily to diverse user needs. GENSS is backwards compatible with SlingShot and supports efficient L-TAC access and network extension, ensuring easy integration with a wide range of existing tactical radios. GENSS is therefore a robust and agile solution for voice and data transmission across multiple operational environments. Simon Davies, Chief Executive at Spectra Group said,
“Since leaving the services, my focus has been to help develop communications technology that genuinely supports the needs of the soldier on the ground. SlingShot demonstrated how L-Band satellite services could extend the reach of existing radios. GENSS builds on those lessons as a software-defined communications system designed to extend tactical networks and evolve as operational requirements change. I am extremely proud to launch GENSS at the show and to already have a NATO customer in final negotiations for its purchase.”
