Visban has developed groundbreaking V-Mesh technology for high-frequency millimeter wave networks, designed to slash network deployment costs while boosting reliability. V-Mesh combines the company’s RF-on-Glass technology with AI to create subnetworks that extend the range of mmWave signals and eliminate dead spots.
While the benefits of millimeter-wave wireless networks are widely recognized, adoption is hindered by limited range, susceptibility to signal obstruction, and high deployment costs. V-Mesh addresses these issues by creating a mesh network of its RF-on-Glass technology to extend the range of millimeter wave signals and navigate around obstructions, reducing the need for base stations.
“V-Mesh will enable the continued evolution of wireless communications,” said S.B. Cha, CEO and co-founder of Visban. “Our goal is to provide affordable and dependable mmWave connectivity that meets the demands of advanced future applications such as AI and AR/VR, both outside and inside buildings.”
V-Mesh and RF-on-Glass Devices: Key to Deploying Reliable Millimeter Wave Networks
Visban’s use of glass substrates in its RF devices is integral to its V-Mesh technology. Glass enables the creation of single-sided and double-sided devices, and the manufacturing processes allow for highly precise structures that enhance sensitivity and reduce signal losses. Visban also uses heterogeneous integration of ICs and other components on glass, ensuring low-cost production.
Visban’s RF-on-Glass devices are being developed with a leading display manufacturer. Additionally, the company is working with a research team from the University of Tokyo to develop an AI-driven mesh network for Visban and third-party devices, ensuring efficient and reliable millimeter-wave routing to and from end-user devices.
“We have high expectations for Visban’s innovative technology. Their approach to expanding millimeter wave coverage is expected to bring significant benefits to the telecommunications industry and many other sectors,” said Keisuke Furukawa, a partner at UTokyo IPC.
