Patent number: 10090943Abstract: A method and system are provided. The method includes receiving a signal strength corresponding to a long range wireless link established between a first directional wireless radio and a second wireless radio, the signal strength varying over time as the first directional wireless radio is aligned with a second wireless radio by an installer, and producing a sound indicator indicative of the signal strength. The sound indicator varies over time as the first directional wireless radio is aligned with the second wireless radio.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2017Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: Mimosa Networks, Inc.Inventors: Brian L.

Patent number: 9998246Abstract: Simultaneous transmission on a shared channel by a plurality of collocated radios is provided herein. The two or more radios are collocated with one another and are communicating with two far radios over a pair of long range wireless links. The two or more radios are configured to transmit and receive in synchronization with one another on a same channel. An off-axis response for each of the two or more radios is reduced compared to their on-axis response for improved signal to noise ratio, and the on-axis response the two or more radios are substantially equal to one another.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2015Date of Patent: June 12, 2018Assignee: Mimosa Networks, Inc.Inventors: Brian Hinman, Jaime Fink
