The company’s standard and custom solutions include power amplifiers, bi-directional amplifiers, high-power radio systems and integrated multi-function assemblies. Engineered for demanding size, weight and power requirements, Triad’s technologies extend communications range, increase data throughput and enhance RF link reliability across unmanned air, ground and maritime platforms.

Triad manufactures in the United States under ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D-certified quality processes. Its products are designed and tested for demanding operational environments, including applicable MIL-STD-810 environmental and MIL-STD-461 EMI/EMC requirements. Triad RF Systems is part of the COMROD Group.

TRIAD Integrated Radio Systems

Rugged high-power radios for unmanned communications

The Triad High Power Radio (THPR) series provides fully integrated, high-power communications for long-range command, control, video and data links.

Each system combines a proven OEM or embedded radio with Triad’s RF amplification, filtering, control circuitry and system interfaces. This integrated approach provides greater RF output power, throughput and link distance than the standalone radio while reducing the size, weight and complexity associated with separate RF components.

Advanced power-control and equalization circuitry maintains stable RF output power and signal-to-noise ratio across changes in temperature and frequency. Available configurations support MIMO and MANET communications across L-, S- and C-band frequencies, with solutions for SWaP-constrained UAVs, unmanned ground and maritime vehicles, and larger platform-mounted systems.

Featured products

THPR1060 – Four-channel S-band amplified radio system combining a Silvus StreamCaster MIMO radio with Triad’s RF amplification, filtering and link-monitoring technology. It delivers 120 W of total transmit power for long-range ISR, unmanned vehicle and military MANET communications.

THPR1076 – Low-SWaP, two-channel L-band radio system integrating a DTC SOL8SDR MIMO radio with Triad’s amplification and control technology. The system provides 40 W of total transmit power for long-range UAS, UGV and USV video and data links.

RF & Microwave Power Amplifiers

Rugged RF power amplifiers for UAV and unmanned systems

Triad RF Systems designs compact RF and microwave power amplifiers for extended-range data links, tactical communications, electronic warfare, counter-UAS and other mission-critical applications.

The company selects the most appropriate GaN, GaAs or LDMOS technology for each application, balancing RF power, linearity, efficiency and thermal performance. Standard and custom-modified amplifiers are available for frequencies up to 40 GHz, with power levels extending into the hundreds of watts.

Connectorized modules incorporate protection against overvoltage, undervoltage and reverse-voltage conditions. Selected models also feature wide-input DC conversion, eliminating the need for an external converter and simplifying integration into unmanned platforms.

Advanced monitoring and control options include forward and reflected power measurement, temperature logging, device-level DC monitoring, gain control, transmit/receive switching and configurable alarms.

Featured products

TA1216 – Ultra-broadband 300–6000 MHz GaN power amplifier delivering approximately 32 W of saturated RF output in a compact form factor.

TA1056 – High-power-density 20–1000 MHz amplifier providing approximately 40 W of saturated RF output for broadband defense and electronic warfare applications.

Bi-Directional Amplifiers

Low-SWaP RF amplification for long-range unmanned data links

Triad’s bi-directional amplifiers combine high-power transmit amplification, low-noise receive amplification and transmit/receive switching within a single compact module.

Designed to extend the range and throughput of two-way communications, the amplifiers support long-range UAV data links, MIMO and MANET networks, ISR video transmission, tactical radios and communications for unmanned ground and maritime vehicles.

Triad’s BDAs support signal types ranging from basic FM to complex QAM and OFDM waveforms carrying high-data-rate video and sensor information. Available capabilities include automatic or manually controlled transmit/receive switching, wide-range DC inputs, built-in test, RF monitoring and communication with the host radio or vehicle system.

Featured products

TTRM1210 – Compact 30–2700 MHz, 8 W bi-directional amplifier supporting broadband software-defined radios and highly modulated waveforms.

TTRM2005D – Dual-channel S-band bi-directional amplifier developed to extend the range and throughput of MIMO and MANET radio links.
