Ka Band Satellite Transmitter

It was first used in the experimental acts gigabit satellite network and is currently used in the inmarsat i 5 system and the spacex starlink system and will be used in the iridium next satellite series kacific k 1 satellite as well as the james webb space.

Ka band satellite transmitter. Greater connectedness in remote areas. Arralis announced the launch of a new k ka band transceiver for satellite applications. State of the art high reliability ka band transmitter providing very flexible high data rate capability while incorporating advanced digital modulation schemes. The le katr 102 transceiver is a fully populated pcb designed to fit within a 1u cubesat profile 100 100 100 mm.

The front end is the usual direct tv ka band lna. In satellite communications the k a band allows higher bandwidth communication. Our ka band gateways are part of a complete broadband system offered by viasat. Ka band and downconverted to the intermediate frequency required by the modem input.

Frequency coverage will include 27 to 30 5 ghz for uplink communications and 17 to 21 2 ghz for downlink communications. A ka band transceiver for satellite communications tokyo institute of technology. Ka band dishes can be much smaller and typically range from 60cm 1 2m 2 to 4 in diameter. Fully frequency agile and on orbit reconfigurable.

General dynamics hrt150 ku band transmitter provides a solution for delivering large amounts of data from a spacecraft in one small package. The ka band k band above is primarily used for two way consumer broadband and military networks. We have combined this switchable feature into our new duo buc range to cover dual rf frequency bandwidths. The lna has retained the existing ka band feed and now provides lhc and rhc outputs on sma connectors.

Transmission power is much greater compared to the c x or ku band beams.
