Ka-band SATCOM terminal
Deliver always-on connectivity to space, air, and ground platforms with CesiumAstro’s Skylark Ka-band SATCOM terminal. The flat-panel AESA provides reliable, high-speed throughput with zero moving parts. Seamless hand-off between multiple constellations and multiple orbits with multiple beams.
Broad Ka-band frequency coverage with software-defined functions enables seamless simultaneous connectivity to multiple constellations.
Maximize quality of service and eliminate disruptions with seamless satellite-to-satellite handover between orbits and networks.
Optimize performance while maximizing flexibility with software-defined functionality and software enabled upgrades.
Tile-based architecture allows the antenna to scale to support many platforms, both large and small, spanning aircraft, ships, vehicles, drones, and spacecraft.
Antenna is built to an open architecture to allow you to integrate your modem of choice, enabling client customization with minimal non-recurring engineering (NRE).
Ultra-thin array minimizes the profile signature on a host platform.
The Skylark terminal is constellation agnostic allowing roaming across multiple networks using the modem of your choice. Multiple antenna options support commercial and Government missions.
Data relay missions, like those defined for NASA Commercial Services Project (CSP), require connectivity to multiple networks from space. CesiumAstro’s active phased array technology offers a rugged steerable, flat panel, backhaul option through LEO, MEO, or GEO satellites.
As airborne terminals transition from GEO to MEO and LEO constellation connectivity, CesiumAstro’s lower latency/low-SWaP antenna solution provides service to aircraft, helicopters, and UAS platforms with a scalable antenna architecture.
Reliable, low-profile solutions are critical for defense applications to keep vehicles and equipment connected. Active phased arrays of different shapes, sizes, allow SATCOM capability to be integrated into every asset.
Commercial aircraft can take advantage of constellation connectivity across multiple orbits for more robust, cost-optimized data solutions. CesiumAstro's Skylark SATCOM terminal reduces installation and maintenance complexity without sacrificing performance. The flat-panel SATCOM terminal provides next-generation performance in multiple configurations.
Modern-day battlefield requirements include low-latency, high bandwidth connections to sensors and weapons systems in contested environments. CesiumAstro’s Skylark SATCOM terminal provides a rugged solution for connectivity among a range of platforms providing a robust connectivity solution. The antenna is scalable to support UASs, aircraft, vehicles, and ships.
Built upon CesiumAstro’s industry-leading active phased array technology, the flat-panel array has zero moving parts, lowering over all maintenance requirements and providing a more reliable solution as compared to mechanically steered antennas.
The terminal’s tightly integrated multi-beam architecture includes two tiled arrays—one for transmit and one for receive—scalable to small, medium, or large form factors.
