About Skylark Wireless LLC

Skylark designs and builds advanced Massive MIMO 5G/6G wireless platforms in Houston, TX, initially targeting last-mile rural broadband providers and private 5G networks for enterprises. With our current fixed-wireless products, internet service providers and wireless carriers can reach new customers and compete competitively for over $42 Bn in broadband infrastructure funds being spent in the next three years. We are raising new funding to scale production volumes and reduce production costs, as well as integrate native 5G mobile capabilities into our existing and future wireless platforms.

Problem statement

Skylark Wireless designs and manufactures next-generation wireless systems with an initial focus on bridging the digital divide. That is, over 21 million Americans in rural areas, and over 3 billion people worldwide, can not access broadband Internet, denying them critical education, commercial, and healthcare services. Skylark pioneered Massive MIMO, now a core 5G technology, and designed its software-defined radio (SDR) systems from the ground up for long-range high-speed non-line-of-sight communications in difficult terrain. Our radio innovations transform the economics of providing affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities, and unleash the full potential of Massive MIMO in fixed and mobile environments.

Traction information

Skylark is deploying its FarosV2 fixed wireless access (FWA) platform in a $10 M project with Inland Cellular in rural Montana. We have additional FWA projects lined up for 2025 pending federal review.

In addition, Skylark's all-programmable Massive MIMO platforms are used in multiple 5G/6G testbeds, from the ARA Wireless Living Lab in rural Iowa to a $10 M USAF 5G spectrum sharing and interference avoidance prototype project deployed on Rice University campus. We have teamed with dozens of Fortune 500 companies to submit and win proposals utilizing our agile, fully-programmable FarosV2 radio platform.

Skylark has completed production and FCC-certification of it's FarosV2 Massive MIMO base station for turnkey rural broadband networks. It has also deployed it's cloud network management utility with customers, the final piece of its turnkey last-mile broadband solution portfolio, all assembled and managed in the US.
