Whilst some products are designed to meet specific customer requirements, others, like the D-Cam 'Clip-on' and the MVL-D2,
are standard products. Gigawave has also carried out bespoke design projects
for many companies, such as BBC Research, Dorna (MotoGP), ISC (World Rally Championship), and other
organisations.
The Gigawave Design and Development department consists of a team
of RF engineers, software developers, systems engineers,
and CAD designers, each specialists in their own fields.
Almost every aspect of new product design and development, including
multi-layer PCB board design, is undertaken
in-house by Gigawave engineers. In addition, CAD draftsmen produce
all the drawings needed to manufacture the incredibly rugged housings
that Gigawave is famous for. These are milled out of solid aluminium
by specialist contractors using high-speed CNC machines.
Historically, Gigawave's strength has been its understanding
of RF. With the advent of digital links this knowledge, acquired through
operational experience, has been vitally important. Today, software
developers are an essential part of the Gigawave development team
as are the
hardware
and systems engineers, all of whom have worked together as a team to
produce the new generation of digital links from Gigawave.
