On November 4, Miratlas took part in the Telecom Council's November Innovation Review, held at SRI PARC in Palo Alto, California. Jean-Edouard Communal represented the company at this event dedicated to innovation across telecommunications, wireless technologies and IoT.
A meeting point for telecom innovation
The November Innovation Review brought together innovative companies and key players from across the telecommunications ecosystem, including operators, industry partners and technology providers.
The program featured presentations from emerging companies, discussions with Telecom Council members and Q&A sessions exploring new technologies and developments shaping the industry.
These events provide valuable opportunities for technology startups to connect their innovations with market needs, engage with potential industrial partners and explore new opportunities for collaboration and growth.
Atmospheric characterization: a key factor in optical link availability
For Miratlas, the event was an opportunity to highlight the essential role of atmospheric characterization in the development and deployment of optical telecommunications infrastructure.
Atmospheric conditions, including cloud cover, visibility and turbulence, directly influence the performance and availability of optical communication links. This is particularly relevant for Free-Space Optical (FSO) communications and satellite optical communications.
Accurate knowledge of the atmospheric environment is therefore essential to assess deployment feasibility, identify suitable locations and anticipate potential service interruptions.
Through its high-precision atmospheric characterization solutions, Miratlas provides valuable data to help:
Assess site suitability by evaluating local atmospheric conditions.
Anticipate atmospheric impacts on optical signal propagation.
Estimate optical link availability by identifying the conditions and periods that may affect link performance.
Support network planning and optimization to enable more reliable and efficient infrastructure deployment.
Atmospheric characterization helps reduce uncertainty in optical network deployment and provides essential insights for assessing and improving operational link availability.
Connecting innovation with industry needs
Miratlas' participation in the November Innovation Review reflects its commitment to strengthening relationships with international telecommunications players and contributing to discussions on next-generation communication infrastructure.
Miratlas would like to thank Tom Camp and the entire Telecom Council team for their warm welcome, as well as all participants for the valuable discussions.
Events like this play an important role in connecting technological innovation with the real-world needs of operators and industry partners
