Skywaves, also known as ionospheric waves or skip waves, are produced by high-frequency radio waves that typically operate within a 3 to 30 MHz range. Not only does it travel faster than fiber optics, with a speed that is approximately 50% faster through the air, but its travel distance is also shorter when following the geodesic line.
Is made up of charged particles, such as ions and free electrons, that interact with electromagnetic radiation
Once short waves reach Ionosphere, they refract or bend toward Earth
A single hop between Earth and Ionosphere reaches up to 3,500 km. Multi-hop allows traveling larger distances by bending around the curvature of the earth
Our receiving antenna picks up the refracted waves and converts them into an electrical signal that we process and deliver to a data center or client site
Because of their ability to travel long distances, Skywaves can be used in a variety of applications, including but not limited to HFT, Trading, Cyber Security and others
