Space Applications

Highly integrated phased-array antennas are fundamental enablers for space-borne SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellites for earth observation and for constellations of LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellites for telecommunications. Beamforming core-chips are the key components for active phased-array antennas. They allow the integration of all RF functions needed for antenna beamforming like Tx/Rx...
