Critical Infrastructure Technologies Receives US Patent for Mobile Radio Station Technology
Vancouver, British Columbia — February 27, 2026 — Leads & Copy —
Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. (CiTech) has been granted a United States patent for its “Mobile Radio Station” technology. The patent, numbered US 12,555,886, protects the core technology behind CiTech’s Nexus platform architecture.
The U.S. patent grant marks a milestone in CiTech’s intellectual property strategy, securing protection in the U.S. market, including the defense, telecommunications, and homeland security sectors.
CiTech’s patented invention covers a deployable, autonomous mobile radio station system. This integrated, containerized communications platform is designed for rapid establishment of connectivity in remote, disaster-affected, and high-threat environments.
The system includes:
- A transportable ISO container-based communications hub.
- A hydraulically deployed, rigid scissor-lift mast.
- Hybrid energy systems incorporating battery storage and renewable inputs.
- Automated deployment functionality.
- Climate-controlled, mission-ready communications architecture.
The United States is a key strategic market for CiTech across defense, emergency response, border security, energy, mining, and aerospace sectors. The U.S. patent strengthens CiTech’s ability to:
- Protect its rigid mast and autonomous deployment technology.
- Engage with U.S. defense and federal agencies.
- Expand licensing and partnership opportunities.
- Secure long-term commercial advantage in mission-critical communications.
CiTech’s invention defines a deployable, autonomous mobile radio station designed for rapid establishment of secure communications in remote or high-threat environments. The system integrates transportability, energy autonomy, and intelligent automation. The patented design expands CiTech’s Total Addressable Market, extending beyond traditional telecommunications infrastructure into defense, disaster response, remote industrial operations, mining, and emerging aerospace and satellite applications.
CiTech has filed patent applications for “A Mobile Radio Station” in Australia, Canada, China, Europe, India, Japan, Republic of Korea, South Africa, Thailand, Vietnam and the United States. Along with the United States, South African have granted a patent All other jurisdictions are either filed, under or awaiting examination. This IP coverage ensures protection of CiTech’s Nexus 20 technology across major defense and communications markets.
CiTech’s Nexus 20 platform delivers a self-contained, air-liftable communications hub capable of autonomous field operation. A differentiator of CiTech’s design is its super-rigid, precision-engineered mast, which maintains stability, ensuring uninterrupted signal delivery.
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 applications, including rapid-deploy satellite ground stations and mobile telemetry for aerospace and UAS test ranges; counter-UAS and electronic perimeter defense; and critical infrastructure protection and smart city security.
According to Brenton Scott, Chief Executive Officer of CiTech, securing the U.S. patent grant is a major milestone. Scott stated that the U.S. market is central to global defense and advanced communications innovation, and this patent strengthens the company’s ability to commercialize the Nexus platform internationally, reinforcing its long-term strategy of building sovereign, autonomous communications capability for allied nations.
CiTech is creating autonomous, high capacity, rapidly deployable technology that delivers essential services. CiTech is targeting the mining, defence, border security/surveillance and emergency services sectors in relation to its first product release, the Nexus 16, which aims to provide critical mobile telecommunications for such sectors.
CiTech’s self-deploying platform (SDP) provides a solution for two of the limitations of current rapidly deployable communication solutions: strength of the tower and ability to rapidly self-deploy and operate. The SDP is designed to support radio equipment including LTE (Long Term Evolution) and several other technological payloads, such as surveillance and anti-drone systems. CiTech has completed the research and development phase and is currently commercialising the first of many products that will be released.
