Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. (CSE: CTTT) (OTC: CITLF) (FRA: X9V) announced that its U.S. patent application titled “A Mobile Radio Station” has been granted as United States Patent No. US 12,555,886. The patent, filed as application No. 18/558043, is registered in the name of Critical Infrastructure Technologies Pty Ltd and protects the core technology behind the Company’s Nexus platform architecture.
The U.S. patent grant marks a significant milestone in CiTech’s global intellectual property strategy, securing protection in one of the world’s largest defence, telecommunications, and homeland security markets. The patented invention covers a deployable, autonomous mobile radio station system — an integrated, containerised communications platform designed for rapid establishment of secure connectivity in remote, disaster-affected, and high-threat environments.
The system integrates 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, and a climate-controlled, mission-ready communications architecture. According to the company, this design overcomes limitations of conventional mobile LTE and radio infrastructure by integrating transportability, energy autonomy, and intelligent automation.
The United States represents a key strategic market for CiTech across defence, emergency response, border security, energy, mining, and aerospace sectors. The patent strengthens CiTech’s ability to protect its rigid mast and autonomous deployment technology, engage with U.S. defence and federal agencies, expand licensing and partnership opportunities, and secure long-term commercial advantage in mission-critical communications. The patent further enhances CiTech’s competitive positioning as it continues expanding its international footprint across North America, Europe, and allied markets.
CiTech 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 Africa has granted a patent. All other jurisdictions are either filed or under or awaiting examination. This extensive global IP coverage ensures broad protection of CiTech’s Nexus 20 technology across major defence and communications markets.
The 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, which maintains complete stability even under extreme wind conditions. Unlike competitor systems that suffer vibration and movement during operation, CiTech’s mast design ensures consistent, uninterrupted signal delivery — a critical requirement for mission-critical defence and communications environments. Its energy independence, automation, and structural integrity significantly reduce personnel exposure and logistics, enhancing reliability and operational readiness in demanding field conditions.
The system’s modular and AI-enabled architecture also 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. Brenton Scott, Chief Executive Officer of CiTech, commented: “Securing our United States patent grant is a major milestone for CiTech. The U.S. market is central to global defence and advanced communications innovation, and this patent strengthens our ability to commercialise the Nexus platform internationally. Protecting our intellectual property in the United States reinforces our long-term strategy of building sovereign, autonomous communications capability for allied nations.”
