Rakon Limited<\/span><\/strong> has announced that its cutting-edge <\/strong><\/span>Master Reference Oscillator (MRO) subsystem<\/strong><\/span><\/strong> has been selected by the <\/span>German Aerospace Center (DLR)<\/span> for an in-orbit mission on board the <\/span>International Space Station (ISS)<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n Rakon<\/span>\u2019s MRO will play a key role as part of the payload for the DLR\u2019s <\/span>\u2018<\/span>COMPASSO<\/span>\u2019<\/span> in-orbit validation project to test new optical technologies on the <\/span>Bartolomeo platform<\/span> attached to the ISS. These optical technologies will significantly improve future generations of <\/span>Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)<\/span>, such as the European Galileo system, by delivering greater positioning accuracy and reducing ground infrastructure size and complexity.<\/span><\/p>\n Known for its exceptional precision, <\/span>Rakon<\/span>\u2019s MRO subsystem<\/span> delivers highly accurate and ultra-stable frequencies and timing that enable communications and synchronization for satellites and other space infrastructure. Powered by Rakon\u2019s proprietary ultra-stable oscillator technology, the MRO ensures unparalleled reliability with uninterrupted frequency stability and timing.<\/span><\/p>\n For the <\/span>COMPASSO<\/span> project<\/span>, <\/span>Rakon<\/span>\u2019s MRO will facilitate comparative measurements of the optical technologies being tested (assessing the frequency stability in the relevant time period) to compare their performance against existing systems.<\/span><\/p>\n Rakon<\/span> is a top-3 supplier of its space subsystem products and earlier in 2024, the company announced multi-million dollar contract wins to supply its <\/span>MRO subsystems<\/span> for two new <\/span>Low-Earth orbit (LEO)<\/span> <\/span>satellite<\/span> constellations.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Rakon Limited has announced that its cutting-edge Master Reference Oscillator (MRO) subsystem has been selected by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) for an in-orbit mission on board the International Space Station (ISS).
