TW Ghost™ 881 Embedded Module

Lightweight SDR for Airborne and ISR Applications

P1031057 Nologo

 

TW-881 Data Sheet

The TW Ghost 881™ is a cost-effective, lightweight Software Defined Radio (SDR) purpose-built for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) and other Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP)-constrained platforms. Designed for seamless integration across a broad range of mission systems, it provides high-performance Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), real-time video, Command and Control (C2), and relay capabilities that extend network reach and resiliency. Based on the proven TW-880 architecture, the TW-881 offers exceptional performance with minimal integration effort—ideal for airborne, ground, and relay node deployments.

KEY FEATURES

  • Compact, Airborne-Ready Design—Lightweight, cost-effective SDR optimized for SWaP-constrained Group 1 and 2 UAS platforms.
  • ISR, C2 and Relay Optimization—Enables high throughput, low latency networking for real-time sensor data, video, C2, and relay across extended ranges for airborne and mobile missions.
  • Plug-and-Play Interfaces—Ethernet, Serial, and USB data interfaces to support C2, status, and payload data.
  • Streamlined Integration—Compatible with TrellisWare APIs, tools, and the TW-880 ecosystem to accelerate development and reduce overall integration effort.

MULTI-WAVEFORM CAPABILITIES

  • TSM—A scalable and robust MANET waveform purpose-built to support extremely large networks with simultaneous voice, data, video, and Position Location Information (PLI) operating in a single radio frequency channel.
  • Katana WB Anti-Jam Connectivity* (Optional)—Wideband frequency-hopping anti-jam MANET delivering resilient voice, PLI, and high-throughput IP data in harsh RF environments.
  • Seismic A/J UAS Connectivity* (Optional)—Anti-jam C2 link with simultaneous high-throughput downlink for video, sensor data, and telemetry, optimized for low latency.
