Hi
I'm looking for possible solutions for setting up a long range radio link up to 50km although that is flexible, and with a data rate of upwards of 100kpbs. The unit is for a rocket flight computer.
I have looked at radiometrix transceivers at 433Mhz and at general long range wifi (2.4ghz) solutions. The problem with the high frequency options is the cost of the bi directional amplifiers involved with getting enough power to transmit 50km.
With a sensitive enough receiver and powerful enough amplifier would it be possible to get a reliable radio link on the 433Mhz frequency. Bearing in mind limit on the 433Mhz band where i live is 26dBW.
If that is possible how difficult is it to build 433Mhz amps given that I have no RF experience?
