Company Background
Dr. Ernie Lin and Dr. Adolf Giger founded Nebo Wireless LLC in 2000 to develop wireless Internet technologies. To date, the company has filed five patents relating to wireless solutions for dialup connections. The company licensed some technologies to equipment manufacturers in 2001. In 2002, Nebo Wireless established its North Andover, Massachusetts laboratory to develop products based on the new technologies. Joining Nebo were other high tech entrepreneurs and several seasoned engineers from AT&T Bell Labs and microwave radio manufacturer ATI (Advanced TechCom, Inc., since acquired by Nera Networks).

Affiliation with several Asian companies gives Nebo the capacity to manufacture high-quality wireless Internet devices in volume at price targets appropriate for the retail marketplace.

Partnership Opportunities

Ernie H. Lin, Ph.D. CEO and President

Dr. Lin is a co-founder of Nebo Wireless.

Dr. Lin previously founded Advanced TechCom, Inc. (ATI), a Massachusetts-based manufacturer of digital microwave radio equipment. For several years, ATI was the second- or third-largest short-haul digital microwave supplier to the United States cellular industry and the largest medium-capacity supplier in Canada and Australia. Known for its technical excellence, ATI was the first to integrate an entire microwave radio modem into a single ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) and the first to design and build a hybrid RF and microwave circuit board for its long-haul (1.5Ghz to 8.5Ghz) product line, technical developments that have since found their way into 802.11 (aka Wi-Fi) radio products. Dr. Lin was the chief architect of all of ATI's microwave radio products and served as CEO from the company's inception in 1990 until its 1998 purchase by Nera ASA of Norway.

Prior to that, M/A-COM's Communications Division employed Dr. Lin as head of the company's engineering department in the design of microwave radios for video and computer industries. Earlier, he served as an engineer and as an engineering manager within the Microwave Radio Department of AT&T Bell Labs in North Andover, MA.

Dr. Lin has filed numerous patents in microwave radio and wireless communication. He is well known in the microwave radio industry, particularly for his pioneering work with Angle Diversity in high-capacity microwave communications and his many pioneering works in medium-capacity digital radios for the wireless and computer industries.
