| Rockville,
Maryland, February 17, 2004 — Teletronics International,
Inc.
announced today that the Company has been issued patent
number 6,681,100 from the United States Patent and Trademark
Office for its SmartAmp™ amplifier. This invention,
based upon applying Automatic Gain Control (AGC) technology,
optimizes an amplifier's operational capabilities in
a broad range of advanced spread spectrum systems and
broadens the selection of hardware in Wireless LAN,
WAN and MAN applications. As such, different versions
of the SmartAmp™ amplifier serve as integral parts
in many small and large broadband wireless networks
under FCC part 15 certification, including networks
based on Cisco's Aironet® WLAN radio.
The SmartAmp™ amplifier is input-power based,
coupled with a stable constant gain circuit. This Automatic
Gain Control technology significantly simplifies the
use of standard bi-directional amplifiers. Thus, the
variations among different types of radios over a wide
range of RF cable lengths are automatically compensated
and stabilized without user adjustment, effectively
making the RF amplifiers "Plug & Play."
This technology enables an amplifier to maintain constant
output power and prevent transmission signal distortion
for a wide signal input range. It not only offers excellent
signal linearity but also provides a competitive advantage
for broadband wireless internet service providers (WISPs)
and system integrators.
Dr. Dickson Fang, Teletronics President and CEO, said
"[w]e submitted this patent application more than
four years ago. During that time, this innovative technology
has been subject to vigorous scrutiny by patent experts,
competitors, and imitators in every possible way. We
are pleased about the outcome, as it only strengthens
our belief that Teletronics is at the forefront of broadband
technology."
