Edgewater Wireless Receives Notice of Allowance from U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. (OTC: KPIFF) has announced a Notice of Allowance from the USPTO for its patent on Automatic Gain Control (AGC) in multichannel communication systems. This new intellectual property enhances its Spectrum Slicing technology across various wireless standards, including WiFi6/6E/7 and 4G/5G. With over 25 granted patents, Edgewater’s expanding portfolio solidifies its leadership in the multi-channel Wi-Fi market and supports future growth strategies. The advancements are expected to improve channel density and reduce latency significantly.
- Notice of Allowance received for U.S. patent application number 16/806,982, enhancing the IP portfolio.
- Strengthens competitive position in the multi-channel Wi-Fi market via new AGC technology.
- Improves Spectrum Slicing capabilities, allowing 3-4 times channel density and 50% latency reduction.
- None.
Highlights:
- New Intellectual Property (IP) strengthens Edgewater’s competitive position and acknowledges the Company’s highly differentiated approach to multi-channel signal attenuation and gain control
- Utilizing this newest IP for Automatic Gain Control (AGC) for advanced signal processing enhances Edgewater’s multi-channel Spectrum Slicing capability regardless of wireless standards - WiFi6/6E/7 or 4G/5G
- Expansion of IP portfolio further strengthens the Company’s leadership position in the Spectrum Slicing multi-channel Wi-Fi market
With over 25 USPTO granted patents, Edgewater’s growing patent portfolio highlights the Company’s ongoing commitment to protecting its innovations and positioning the Company for future growth. This strategy, to file patents on both the hardware-device and implementation side, was implemented over a decade ago and continues across Edgewater’s Spectrum Slicing product development cycle and should support the increasing value of its intellectual property (IP) assets as the Company delivers its Spectrum Slicing next-generation Wi-Fi - today.
“Continuing to build and enhance our rich portfolio of Spectrum Slicing patents is a critical element of our growth and commercialization strategy. Patents strengthen our competitive position and give us a lock on our Spectrum Slicing approach as we begin our scaling and manufacturing efforts,” said
USPTO 16/806,982: Automatic Gain Control (AGC) for Multichannel / Wideband Communications System
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) system for multi-channel signals attenuates an incoming multi-channel signal by providing a gain. The system further adjusts each individual channel, of the multi-channel signal, by supplying a second gain if needed. The AGC system is designed to ensure a received signal power is at an optimal level for analog to digital conversion or any other form of signal processing. The system also enables elimination of mid-packet gain adjustments.
Edgewater’s Spectrum Slicing is a highly advanced signal processing technique that enables multiple radio (Wi-Fi) channels to operate within the same Wi-Fi band in the same coverage area. Spectrum Slicing dramatically reduces co-channel (CCI) and adjacent channel (ACI) interference.
This additional patent allowance further deepens our leadership in the multi-channel Wi-Fi market. Edgewater’s Spectrum Slicing is the only technology that force multiplies the available channels within a Wi-Fi band, effectively allowing for 3-4 times the channel density within a coverage area, decreasing latency by

About
We make Wi-Fi. Better.
Edgewater’s physical layer Spectrum Slicing allows a frequency band to be divided, or sliced, to enable more radios to operate in a given area. Think of Spectrum Slicing like moving from a single-lane road to a multi-lane highway — regardless of Wi-Fi technology. The recently completed Proof of Concept (PoC) with a major Tier 1 Service Provider showed 7 to 18 times performance gains in
