DALLAS, April 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- COMSovereign
Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: COMS) ("COMSovereign" or "Company"), a
U.S.-based developer of 4G LTE Advanced and 5G Communication
Systems and Solutions, today announced that its Virtual NetCom
("VNC") business unit has entered into a Cooperative Research and
Development Agreement ("CRADA") with the National Institute of
Standards and Technology ("NIST").
CRADA is a partnering tool allowing federal laboratories to work
with U.S. industries, academia, and other organizations on
cooperative Research and Development (R&D) projects. CRADAs
provide flexibility in structuring project contributions,
intellectual property rights, and in protecting proprietary
information and CRADA research results.
Under the agreement, engineers at NIST will work with
COMSovereign to evaluate and demonstrate the applicability of 5G
distributed systems ("DS") in a use case for 5G in public safety
and other programs. The parties will utilize the 5G core and gNodeB
radio technology from VNC to test specific 3GPP standard features
and their impact on public safety operations. Research will focus
on all aspects of deploying a 5G network for public safety's use
including deployment feasibility, 5G features employed, local and
distributed compute resources leveraged, and broadband service
availability and quality expected from a DS.
"COMSovereign is honored to have the opportunity to partner with
NIST on the testing of next generation 5G deployable systems and to
participate in a program that can help define the requirements of
future communications systems designed to support the needs of
America's first responders and public safety practitioners," said
Dr. Dustin McIntire, Chief
Technology Officer of COMSovereign.
This is the second CRADA agreement between VNC and NIST. The
first CRADA studied "Highly Mobile Deployed Networks" and the
applicability of airborne 4G LTE solutions. A NIST test report is
expected to be published shortly.

About NIST
The National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) was founded in 1901 and is now part of the U.S.
Department of Commerce. NIST is one of the nation's oldest physical
science laboratories. Congress established the agency to remove a
major challenge to U.S. industrial competitiveness at the time—a
second-rate measurement infrastructure that lagged behind the
capabilities of the United
Kingdom, Germany, and other
economic rivals. From the smart electric power grid and electronic
health records to atomic clocks, advanced nanomaterials, and
computer chips, innumerable products and services rely in some way
on technology, measurement, and standards provided by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology. Today, NIST measurements
support the smallest of technologies to the largest and most
complex of human-made creations—from nanoscale devices so tiny that
tens of thousands can fit on the end of a single human hair up to
earthquake-resistant skyscrapers and global communication
networks.
