Together, the two firms will install and deploy the antenna systems at 11 gateways located throughout&nbsp;Europe.<\/p>\n<p>CPI\u2019s TT&amp;C antenna systems will help maintain peak performance of the satellite while it is in orbit, SkyVision stated. The systems\u2019 features include a patented sub-reflector tracking, which enables the antenna to track the satellite to within one-one thousandth of a degree without moving the main reflector, providing not only greater accuracy but reduced operating and maintenance expenses. This technology is paired with a monopulse feed system to provide inherent redundancy support.<\/p>\n<p>CPI expects delivery and installation of the antennas to begin in mid-2018 and to be completed in 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global-IP Caymn\u2019s GiSat 1.
