Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. (CSE: CTTT) (OTC: CITLF) (FRA: X9V) has provided an update on its international patent filings for its Mobile Radio Station technology, which underpins the Company’s growing presence in the global defence and critical infrastructure sectors. The invention defines a deployable, autonomous mobile radio station designed for rapid establishment of secure communications in remote or high-threat environments, overcoming limitations of conventional mobile LTE and radio infrastructure by integrating transportability, energy autonomy, and intelligent automation.
The patented design substantially expands CiTech’s Total Addressable Market, extending beyond traditional telecommunications into defence, disaster response, remote industrial operations, mining, and emerging aerospace and satellite applications. Core system features include an integrated mobile platform housed within a standard ISO shipping container containing all communications, power, HVAC, and control systems; a scissor-lift communications tower that deploys hydraulically to approximately 16 metres, supporting payloads up to 250 kg and wind-rated to 45 m/s; autonomous deployment via PLC-based automation enabling full deployment in about 30 minutes; a hybrid power architecture incorporating DC generators, up to 4.8 kW solar input, and 150 kWh of onboard battery capacity; and redundant dual 5 kW HVAC systems for internal climate control.
CiTech’s Nexus 20 platform delivers a fully self-contained, air-liftable communications hub capable of autonomous field operation, ideal for rapid network establishment in defence operations, disaster recovery, and remote mission support. A key differentiator is its super-rigid, precision-engineered mast that maintains stability under extreme wind conditions, ensuring consistent, uninterrupted signal delivery—critical for mission-critical defence and communications environments. Its energy independence, automation, and structural integrity reduce personnel exposure and logistics, enhancing reliability and operational readiness. The system’s modular and AI-enabled architecture positions CiTech for next-generation applications, including rapid-deploy satellite ground stations and mobile telemetry for aerospace and UAS test ranges, counter-UAS and electronic perimeter defence, and critical infrastructure protection and smart city security.
CiTech has filed patents for “A Mobile Radio Station” in Australia, Canada, China, Europe, India, Japan, Republic of Korea, South Africa, Thailand, Vietnam, and the United States. The South African patent has been granted, with all other jurisdictions under or awaiting examination. This global IP coverage ensures broad protection of the Nexus 20 technology across major defence and communications markets. CEO Brenton Scott stated, “Achieving global patent coverage for our Nexus 20 platform strengthens CiTech’s strategic position in the defence and critical communications sectors. Our patented, rigid-mast design delivers stable, uninterrupted connectivity in any environment—providing a decisive operational advantage for defence, emergency response, security/surveillance and industrial users worldwide.”
The Nexus 20 patent establishes CiTech as an innovator in autonomous, cyber-resilient, and energy-independent communications infrastructure, combining mechanical innovation, renewable energy systems, and intelligent control to deliver a new class of mobile infrastructure solutions for defence, emergency, and strategic industrial operations worldwide.
