Scalable Solid-State Amplifiers
While most of the satcom world’s attention continues to be focused on creating hardware and solutions for higher frequency ranges, such as Ka, Q, V and more, a critical, but less talked about portion of the spectrum continues to be relied upon for critical satellite communications and radar applications. L-band (1-2 GHz) and S-band (2-4…

Against all odds, an asteroid mining company appears to be making headway
When I first spoke with space entrepreneurs Jose Acain and Matt Gialich a little more than two years ago, I wondered whether I would ever talk to them again. That is not meant to be offensive; rather, it is a reflection of the fact that the business they entered into—mining asteroids for platinum and other…

Where Does the GEO Piece Fit in Satellite’s Future?
We’ll always need GEO, even in a world that’s gone head over heels for LEO. It’s a matter of physics: The Geostationary Orbit (GEO) has unique characteristics. Because a satellite in GEO stays at a fixed point in the sky relative to any location on the ground, it’s the simplest orbit to communicate with, in…
