Funded Activity Summary

Multiband multibeam antennas for cryogenic cooled satellite ground stations. The project aims to develop a compact multiband antenna array for multi-satellite communication, particularly an antenna system that operates in both S (2GHz-4GHz) and X (8GHz-12GHz) bands in a shared aperture. This project will overcome the limitations of single satellite connectivity in legacy Ground Stations by providing simultaneous downlinks to multiple satellites using multiple beams. The research will directly apply to the next-generation satellite Ground Station product of Quasar Satellite Technologies, an Australian startup providing satellite Ground Station as a Service (GSaaS). This will have enormous benefits to society as it enables fast, affordable satellite data access for services to communities and emergency services.
