What We Do

DGS is a next-gen software platform for wireless deployments that characterizes the Radio Frequency environment across multiple dimensions. Shaped by a holistic view of the wireless spectrum, the DGS portfolio of patented technologies is deep, wide, and well-structured. These technologies are highly applicable, defensible, and desirable to a broad range of licensees.
DGS offers two main solutions: wireless network optimization and critical asset protection.

As LTE and 5G push the limits of the Radio Frequency spectrum as a resource, DGS’s Wireless Network Optimization supports today and tomorrow’s wireless infrastructure. DGS CLEARSITE technology and software analyze and optimize an array of RF spectrum applications and network operations, all in real-time. Its functions include spectrum utilization, interference analysis, competitive benchmarking, dynamic spectrum sharing, and infrastructure management.

DGS also addresses threats from Radio Frequency-enabled devices– just as innovation has delivered increased capability, RF-enabled devices significantly increase vulnerability and risk. DGS’s Critical Asset Protection now includes components that defend against Radio Frequency threats. DGS CLEARSKY technology includes drone threat management, anomalous signal detection, and RF situational awareness.

DGS has a unique vantage point on the future of wireless networks, and has been awarded approximately 100 patents, with 25 patents pending for the advancement of spectrum monitoring and RF data management. These enable the capture and analysis of wideband spectrum data at the point of intercept for applications that deliver real-time situational awareness.

Efficient, quality-driven, and reliable, DGS transforms today’s communication networks while ushering in tomorrow’s 5G services.
