L-band (1-2 GHz) and S-band (2-4 GHz) continue to be important ranges for critical satellite-based applications, from the Global Positing System to Sat-phone for consumer use, as well as Near-Space and Deep-Space communication or TT&amp;C.  Determining the optimal band for any application is not just about determining which frequency range works best. <\/p>\n<p>With the proliferation of wireless technologies that began in the 20th century, determining the optimal frequency range and securing the frequency allocation became a 3-D game of chess, competing with  a myriad of other applications. The goal was to ensure minimal interference while achieving maximum efficiency (for both performance and cost) for both ground segment hardware, as well as in-orbit assets. L-band offered a good  compromise between  range and exactness needed for the desired use. S-band is attractive for  its ability to penetrate the atmosphere  for resilient connectivity. <\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/pAhtHTTpQqvQopHFYxfw_VS_090124_DGTL_1-300x225.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" style=\"width: 120px; height: auto;\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/pAhtHTTpQqvQopHFYxfw_VS_090124_DGTL_1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/pAhtHTTpQqvQopHFYxfw_VS_090124_DGTL_1-800x599.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/pAhtHTTpQqvQopHFYxfw_VS_090124_DGTL_1-640x480.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/pAhtHTTpQqvQopHFYxfw_VS_090124_DGTL_1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\">\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"fs-5 mt-0\">Explore the September 2024 Issue<\/h3>\n<p class=\"mb-0 fs-smaller text-balance\">Check out more from this issue and find your next story to read.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<button class=\"btn btn-primary\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"offcanvas\" data-bs-target=\"#offcanvasMENU\" aria-controls=\"offcanvasExample\" aria-label=\"button\" style=\"white-space: nowrap;\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\tView More <i class=\"bi bi-arrow-right-circle\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/button><\/p>\n<figure class=\"flex flex-col justify-center items-center w-full image-block px-8\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Placeholder alt text\" class=\"w-full object-cover mx-auto\" src=\"http:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/g1f62RLwQ6RKqfjcrhUJ_AWT-Olympus-SSPA-Systems.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"p-3 bg-gray-300 bg-opacity-50 italic mx-auto w-full\">Olympus SSPA systems are factory-integrated packages that range from 800W to 1.2kW in S, C, Ku and X-band with options for phase-combining and redundancy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Providing optimal ground hardware in these bands, including RF amplifiers, became increasingly critical as the demand for the level of data and information transmitted grew exponentially. Certain applications, such as handheld GPS devices, may use only tenths of a watt, while communication for deep space applications may require thousands of watts. While many amplifier technologies can  operate over these bands, solid-state based products offer a unique solution. Solid-state devices, and subsequently complete solid-state amplifier units, can be cascaded \/ tiered to provide varying power levels to fit the link budget requirements for any given application. Advantech Wireless Technologies (AWT) has been providing amplifiers that cover the full range between L-band and S-band to meet the evolving needs of the users in these dedicated frequency ranges.  These amplifiers are available using GaN and\/or LD-MOS technologies in both indoor and outdoor platforms. <\/p>\n<p>As a result of years of research, development and experience, AWT currently offers three different chassis packages for amplifiers in S-band and L\/S band. These single chassis amplifiers range in power levels of 80 watts all the way to 1,250 watts of power. The outdoor package versions offer significant power density in an optimized size, with robust power supplies, all designed for multi-carrier applications. All of the platforms offer excellent linearity performance with  the reliability that comes with  solid-state technology. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"flex flex-col justify-center items-center w-full image-block px-8\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Placeholder alt text\" class=\"w-full object-cover mx-auto\" src=\"http:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Mv6h7pSS86QTdJ2n5hDk_untitled.91.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"p-3 bg-gray-300 bg-opacity-50 italic mx-auto w-full\">Dual Taurus: Redundant 700W L\/S-band system to support Artemis II and III missions.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Fast forward to 2024. We are now talking about returning humankind to the moon. We are looking at sending people to Mars in the reasonably near future. We have probes that have left our solar system and are traversing regions that our grandparents could never fathom possible. Our in-orbit telescopes are providing glimpses into the deep expanses of the universe, potentially finding other earth-like planets. This means increased powers and increased bandwidths. Demand for increased reliability is  no longer a luxury, but is obligatory for truly \u201cmission critical\u201d applications.

While it may seem a simple task to  match up two, four, eight, or sixteen amps and provide a single stable output, the reality is that this is a highly complex process that takes a unique level of expertise and experience. The  result is systems in the ranges of kilowatts to teens of kilowatts of power that ensures  the links  are reliable and consistent.<\/p>\n<p>As with any powerful technology, it\u2019s not just one facet that makes it a better solution. In addition to the power density advantages, access to bandwidth, and accommodating multi-carrier requirements, AWT is a leading provider of the redundancy and combining systems that increase reliability. In addition to \u201ctraditional\u201d redundancy architectures, AWT has pioneered the \u201csoft fail\u201d redundancy architecture for use in L\/S bands (and all satcom bands). AWT produces  systems  employ the \u201cN minus one\u201d concept; that is that you size the  the system so that the  required RF output is met , even in the event of a failure of one of the amplifier modules. This \u201cN minus one\u201d concept provides, not only the power required but includes redundancy to ensure optimal reliability for the systems. These systems go by many brand names: Olympus, Summit, Summit II, to name a few. Regardless of the product family name, the technology is what provides the reliability that customers need and expect from AWT. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"flex flex-col justify-center items-center w-full image-block px-8\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Placeholder alt text\" class=\"w-full object-cover mx-auto\" src=\"http:\/\/www.satellitetoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/cvpuFhLoSsmOsEMtphPz_untitled.97__1_.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"p-3 bg-gray-300 bg-opacity-50 italic mx-auto w-full\">Summit II Soft-Fail Redundant L\/S 3kW L\/S-band systems.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>AWT is a vertically integrated systems provider, with in-house manufacturing of passive components, which allows us to ensure that the combiners, waveguide, and other critical hardware needed to ensure a reliable combining system to combine amplifiers into a higher power solution are designed precisely and reliably.
