Our innovative xRF adaptive beamforming smart antenna technology is the industry’s only smart antenna technology designed for cellular-mesh Wi-Fi solutions. Existing Wi-Fi solutions have struggled to meet the challenges of varying RF environments, networking requirements, and user loads. With the introduction of highly integrated, low cost and low power RFICs, Analog-to-Digital converters and various signal processing components, adaptive antenna arrays have become practical and can now be cost-effectively integrated in wireless systems. The GO xRF technology is based on a patent-pending implementation of adaptive beamforming and smart antenna signal processing algorithms.

On the receive side, xRF overcomes the detrimental effects of multipath (where a transmitted signal follows several propagation paths towards the receiver, causing time delay and delay spread that result in higher bit error rates and degraded performance) by constructively combining phase shifted signals received through reflections, resulting in significant improvements to the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), particularly in multipath-prone non-line-of-sight (NLOS) scenarios.

On the transmit side, the xRF technology dynamically focuses radio energy towards the client, effectively reducing the amount of multipath the client's receiver is exposed to and increasing the system's range and throughput by 2-3 times compared to existing solutions. In the US, a market regulated by the FCC, xRF allows GO MBW base stations to operate at an EIRP of 42 dBmi — effectively four times the transmit power of conventional Wi-Fi systems, resulting in even greater improvements to range, capacity and throughout in the coverage area.

The GO xRF technology is also the only smart antenna technology that operates in a multi-channel access solution and supports both sectorial and omni-directional base stations. The xRF technology powers both our single access channel WLP 1100 as well as the multi-channel WLS 2100 which transmits and receives over two simultaneous, non-synchronous 802.11 channels.

GO’s xRF technology makes a big difference. In fact, with xRF technology wireless network footprints can be reduced by up to 50%. This translates into reducing upfront CAPEX by up to 50% and recurring OPEX savings from 30-50%. See for yourself what xRF technology can do for you.
