TechnoConcepts Inc., developer of a patented technology that converts RF signals directly into digital (RF/D) and vice versa through proprietary DSP software, has signed an agreement with China Electronics Corp. (CEC) to collaborate on the development of an emergency response application providing interoperability capabilities for first responders in emergency response situations.



"This agreement will enable us to work with CEC, through a product development research lab, to collaborate on developing an application of our technology that will enable police, fire, medical and other emergency response service providers to directly communicate with each other," said Antonio Turgeon, chairman and CEO of TechnoConcepts.



According to Turgeon, the product will integrate into existing telecommunications infrastructure and provide this needed, cost-effective, interoperability capability enabling real-time communications between emergency response providers, rather than having to go through conventional dispatch-based services. "Although there are now calls to create new networks, dedicated emergency networks, and various other solutions, these will take time and considerable money. Our technology directly addresses these issues and could be used to allow first responders to talk to each other regardless of frequency used," Turgeon said.



TechnoConcepts signed a licensing agreement with one of CEC's companies in February 2005 to prioritize potential applications and prepare the development of specifications for the company's RF/D technology to fit the requirements of CEC projects, which focus on numerous wireless communications products for government and commercial applications.



TechnoConcepts' TSR technology (based upon its patented RF/D direct conversion process) has successfully demonstrated interoperability between differing communications frequencies, an accomplishment that was impossible to achieve utilizing a single receiver until now. In demonstrations before major electronics manufacturers in South Korea, China and the US, a single TSR receiver chip using only software with no other analog front-end filter or circuitry, has been able to receive, translate and process different remote signals between 450MHz and 1.2 GHz, including a walkie talkie operating at 465 MHz.



Techno's TSR receiver chip ¡X a single wireless receiver ¡X has been shown to communicate directly with different devices on multiple frequency bands, using only software to receive translate and process the different wireless signals. With TSR, the flexibility to communicate with and among different frequencies (and devices) is virtually unlimited.
