NASA Research Park Welcomes Advanced Wireless Communications

New NRP Partner Advanced Wireless Communications (AWC) Inc. designs and maintains metro scale (citi-wide) wireless networks, and attempts to do what most see as "impossible"!

AWC has been awarded jobs throughout the United States and has worked with many California public safety agencies. "We specialize in surveillance systems coupled with wireless technology transport. We want to apply technology in ways never before seen," said AWC Chief Technology Officer Zachary Pereyo.

"Most of our work is now terrestrial based and often focused on emergency communications," said AWC Director of Operations Brian Trumbull. "Wireless communication systems are extremely effective in overcoming catastrophic events. We can provide an immediate response and deploy communication systems rapidly to prevent communication breakdowns like those that occurred during Hurricane Katrina," he added.

"We are growing astronomically," said Trumbull. "We had three people in early 2005 and immediately doubled to six in our original 2500 sq. ft. Pacific Grove headquarters. Since arriving at the NASA Research Park this September we have again doubled to 12. We have decided to make NRP our headquarters and are now opening offices in the Mid West and on the East Coast."

"We are very interested in lunar and interplanetary communications, including all forms of satellite communication," said AWC Chairman Andrew Gold. "We formed an R&D department, and our engineers have significant satellite experience. We would like to be able to provide increased data flow capacity between here and the moon, in support of the government and the emerging commercial space industry."

"Advanced Wireless has been well received by NRP. We find it appealing to be surrounded by brilliant companies and brilliant people in Silicon Valley's technology sector. Surrounding ourselves by the technology industry allows us to give our best", Gold said.

"We are very interested in working with NASA not only to deploy, but to develop wireless technology to support FEMA and Homeland Security. We are in discussion with NASA Ames to participate in emergency communication testing. We would like to provide equipment and test protocols to support all such organizations."

"We forecast continued growth, expecting to have more than 25 engineers and IT skilled employees by the beginning of 2007. We are looking for the best and the brightest. We are in search of installers with exceptional mechanical experience, and engineers with wireless and emergency technical skills", Gold said.

AWC, Inc. was founded in 2005 in Monterey, CA as a spin off from another high technology networking company. Go Advanced Wireless!
