Nova Engineering enhances mobile mesh routers

Nova Engineering recently announced the addition of unidirectional link detection and avoidance (ULDA) to its NovaRoam mobile routers. The ULDA feature allows NovaRoam routers deployed in a mesh network architecture to automatically discover unidirectional link conditions prior to establishing a new route. Once bad routes are detected and designated, the routers avoid them as they continue to search for a bi-directional link, the company said. The result is increased network uptime, higher throughput, longer communication range and more stable operation, according to the company.
