The 1st Separate Brigade of Territorial Defense named after Ivan Bohun has conducted tests of the HIMERA G1 PRO radios, achieving reliable communication over a distance of 45 km without additional equipment. This was reported by the manufacturer Himera Radios.

According to the company, a mesh communication mode was utilized, where each radio station simultaneously receives and transmits signals, acting as a repeater.

This method allows for data transmission and ensures stable communication in critical conditions. A total of four HIMERA G1 PRO radios were used in the tests.

Developers explained that mesh communication is a key trend in modern tactical communications as it significantly extends the communication range.

In other words, signals can be sent even to areas not in direct line of sight of one or several transmitters. In this mode, the signals are 'bounced' from one radio to another. This allows not only voice commands but also other types of data to be transmitted.

Thus, the use of mesh communication enables soldiers to maintain contact even in challenging terrain and when some nodes are lost.

Previously, the 'Chartia' brigade deployed a Himera communication system using drones, employing autonomous B1 repeaters and R1 repeaters with IP connectivity.
