SOTM Antenna System with No Moving Parts
Business and military requirements are driving the surge in demand for SATCOM-on-the-move (SOTM). From aircraft to naval vessels, high-speed trains and the automotive industry, the need for broadband connectivity on mobile platforms has never been greater.
To address these markets, Wavestream has developed a breakthrough electronically-steered antenna (ESA) system for SATCOM-on-the-move connectivity. This ESA system has been proven in-flight and has demonstrated remarkable performance. The system is based on Wavestream’s innovative Ka-band phased array technology, incorporating our third generation RFIC chipset, and world class airborne modem.
Wavestream’s ESA system architecture is scalable in size and performance to fit various applications on land, sea and air. Wavestream’s ESA was proven to meet the requirements of commercial and business aviation.
Wavestream’s ESA system was designed for Very High Throughput Satellites (VHTS) over both GEO and NGSO constellations.
