San Francisco, California, 5th February 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, Avon River Ventures LLC is a leading Asset-Backed Lending firm that collateralizes Tangible and Intangible Assets to disburse non-dilutive funding to companies across North America, Asia, and Europe. Avon River Ventures is thrilled to announce the completion of an Intellectual Property (IP) Valuation for Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc., the foremost pioneer in Wi-Fi Spectrum Slicing technology and intellectual property for residential and enterprise wireless applications. This valuation stands as a significant milestone in Edgewater’s ongoing journey and shines a spotlight on the extraordinary worth of its core IP assets. Edgewater boasts an undeniable competitive edge: Unleashing Wi-Fi with ten times the speed and half the latency for ALL devices, whether legacy or cutting-edge.

The IP Assets have been independently assessed at between US$90M and US$180M for the entire portfolio. Hailing from Ottawa, Canada, Edgewater is an innovation-driven, fabless semiconductor and IP licensing company with a remarkable portfolio of 26 granted patents, trade secrets and groundbreaking Spectrum Slicing technology that reshapes Wi-Fi performance across residential, enterprise, and prosumer applications. Edgewater’s product lineup includes WiFi Spectrum Slicing-powered chipsets, Access Points, reference designs, IP licensing and technology transfer capabilities.

Wi-Fi Spectrum Slicing represents a technological leap forward by enabling multiple concurrent links (or channels) within a given coverage area using standards-compliant WiFi. Edgewater’s patented and standards-leading approach to Wi-Fi finds ideal applications in environments with a high density of clients or access points, making it highly relevant for enterprise, residential, and Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

With the evolution to the WiFi7 standard and beyond, multi-link/channel capabilities are becoming foundational to delivering next-generation Wi-Fi performance. Building on the company’s work with CableLabs on the Dual-Channel Wi-Fi() standard, WiFi7 includes the marquee feature Multi-Link Operation (MLO), which allows a single WiFi7 client to concurrently use connections across multiple bands and quickly switch between them. Like the load-balancing techniques used in wired Ethernet connections, MLO can significantly improve performance and reliability. However, we believe MLO’s requirement for more links/channel capacity on access points makes Wi-Fi Spectrum Slicing an essential feature for enterprise, residential and Industrial IoT applications.

Of paramount importance, including Spectrum Slicing in WiFi7 and the upcoming WiFi8 silicon solutions presents Service Providers and vendors with a field-proven method to deliver performance gains of 10x or more and half the latency for ALL devices – a development set to impact the more than 20 billion Wi-Fi devices deployed globally.

No other approach offers such promise for deployed and future networks.
