Research abstract

During Phase II, Fairwinds will build and test a Ka-band proof of concept satellite terminal comprised of Ka-band subarrays and associated digital architecture integrated with a representative satellite digital modem. This proof of concept prototype will be capable of two (2) transmit beams and up to four (4) receive beams enabling a representative connection to two satellites. The prototype will be evaluated, and technical objectives demonstrated through bench and indoor range testing, which will also be used to validate and update the Phase I models and results.
