TRIAD Amplified Radio Systems address the following concerns:
- Drift in gain, power, signal to noise ratio, and other variables over temperature and frequency
- A minimal (or non-existent) level of analysis of margin-robbing EMI emanating from the vehicle, GCS system, and environment.
- Co-channel RFI issues
- Insufficient RF and/or DC bus filtering to mitigate EMI / RFI issues
- Sub-optimal cables, interconnects and antenna selection / positioning
- Lack of maintenance and establishment of pre- and post- flight tests and checks to ensure that the links are always working at peak performance levels
- Video encoder optimization and radio settings errors
Our experience has shown us that most long range, high bandwidth video, data and C2 links severely under-perform (and frequently fail to achieve their goals) due to the above factors.
Triad’s team of engineers and application specialists from our Data Link Services division will assist and support your team in addressing the remaining factors involving hardware installation, tailoring the payload to fit your vehicle, and all EMI / link margin issues. This results in a high power radio system with unmatched reliability and ease of use. Triad’s THPR series enhanced radios yield links that are easier to integrate, deploy, and maintain than any other solution in the industry. Fill out the form below to request a radio system quote.

Our THPRS Can Work with Your Preferred Radio
The THPR product line continues Triad’s adage to work with the radio your system relies on. These low-SWaP and fully integrated high power systems support L, S, and C bands and offer output power levels that maximize your radio’s potential. Here are just a few examples of the different radio integrations requested by customers that we achieved.
Triad offers a number of dual-channel and quad-channel THPRs that utilize the Silvus Streamcaster SC4200 and SC4400 as a core radio. These fully integrated high power systems support L, S, and C bands and offer output power levels that range from ultra-SWaP-sensitive THPRs putting out 20Ws all the way up to optimal high power radio system designs outputting a total of 200W. Triad’s THPR series radios also offer many features and enhancements over their OEM radio counterparts, right out of the box. Check out ultra-SWap-sensitive THPRs, such as THPR1019-D03 and THPR1021, and more standard THPRs like the THPR1055.
The DTC series of THPRs utilize the 2x2 MIMO DTC SOLO8 as a core radio. These low-SWaP, fully integrated high power radio systems support L, S, and C bands and offer output power levels of up to 100W per channel. Previously, DTC supported an ultra-SWaP-sensitive THPR that showcased Triad’s engineering prowess and exceeded customer expectations. Check out the THPR1039, a high power radio system with a magnesium housing to help meet UAS weight restrictions.
One of our earliest THPRs boasted a Microhard 2x2 MIMO pMDDL as a core radio. This low-SWaP and fully integrated high power radio system was requested to operate in the S bands and offers output power levels of 25W over two channels. Check out the THPR1006 for a look into how we can integrate your Microhard radio.
Finally, Triad RF Systems partnered up with Mobilicom to develop a series of THPR High Power Radio Systems that utilize SkyHopper and MCU30 radios at its core. These low-SWaP and fully integrated high power systems support from the UHF band to C band and can offer output power levels of up to 50W per channel. The THPRs have cross-application appeal and can be the right fit within the military and industrial UxV drone and robotic segments.
