1 Dr. Allan L. Ross Wireless Telematics ross@wirelesstelematics.com ReFLEX™ Wireless Technology Wireless Data Before Wireless Data was Cool

2 Needs – Acquiring Information Meter Reading Site Security Load Shedding Solutions People – Eyes On Wired – Modems, LANS Wireless – Telemetry, SCADA, WAN Monitoring and Control

3 Wireless Network Proliferation

4 Reliability Robustness Coverage Hardware Cost - Initial Capital Cost Airtime Cost – Ongoing Cost Licensed – Cost per device per month Un-licensed – Cost of maintaining system Data Integration Cost IT IS ABOUT MONEY Wireless Considerations Key Issues In Fielding Telemetry (Wireless) Systems

6 Why ReFLEX™ Reliability-Engineered for Data FLEX, one way paging, invented by Motorola 35 years ago system engineered for data, not voice ReFLEX™, two way paging, developed in the 1990s two way paging connected remote devices Device to device telemetry module introduced in 1999 connecting remote devices and the Internet Provides for assured messaging If it can be delivered, it will be delivered Data error correction Messages stored in queue for up to 72 hours If message not delivered, you will know No competition from other protocols on a ReFLEX™ network

7 Robust Excellent in Building Penetration ReFLEX™ networks “simulcast” from towers to the ReFLEX™ devices Each device is serviced by multiple sites transmitting in unison (75 – 500 watt transmitters) Robust ReFLEX™ networks employ “macro-diversity” on the path from the devices to the network Many sites hear the transmission of a single device Approximately 1 watt transmission Extremely sensitive network equipment

8 Current Coverage Satellite Photo Combined Carrier Coverage

9 Future Coverage www.spacedata.net Balloons at 100,000+ feetBalloons at 100,000+ feet Combines weather balloon technology of the 1950s with wireless technology of the 1990s to create a boarder-to- boarder & ocean-to-ocean ReFLEX™ networkCombines weather balloon technology of the 1950s with wireless technology of the 1990s to create a boarder-to- boarder & ocean-to-ocean ReFLEX™ network

10 Hardware Cost Initial Capital Cost Hardware Multiple deployed applications Several manufacturers – competition Existing and deployed networks Web-based automated meter reading and load shedding, site security devices currently available

11 Airtime Cost Ongoing Cost AirtimeAirtime Competition in the technology and between carriers keeps data prices stay lowCompetition in the technology and between carriers keeps data prices stay low Recurrent airtime prices for as little as $1.00 per month per deviceRecurrent airtime prices for as little as $1.00 per month per device quantity airtime based upon number of devices in servicequantity airtime based upon number of devices in service Typical costs for low volume, low airtime usage accounts is $2 – 3 monthlyTypical costs for low volume, low airtime usage accounts is $2 – 3 monthly

12 Data Integration Cost SMTP - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol Out of the box, every ReFLEX™ unit has an email address. Simple message routing using well known standard protocol WCTP - Wireless Communications Transfer Protocol XML based for easy integration Free Support from Wireless Carriers Enterprise class connections for FREE! Open protocol – www.wctp.orgwww.wctp.org

13 Wireless Comparisons

14 In Review ReFLEX™ is: Built and engineered for two-way data Reliable and robust Built for in and out of building use Wireless coverage where 95% of the population are located Lowest cost public wireless network from an airtime and hardware cost perspective
