Problem
Phased‑array antennas for 5G and emerging 6G networks require precise, low‑loss beam steering, but existing phase‑shifter components are bulky, power‑hungry, and limited in bandwidth, restricting system performance and integration density.
Solution
Phase Metron creates chip‑scale RF microchips that perform high‑frequency phase shifting directly on the silicon surface using plasmonic circuit technology and advanced microwave engineering. These microchips enable ultra‑compact, low‑power beam steering for phased‑array antennas, reducing energy loss and expanding usable bandwidth. The designs are compatible with a wide range of wireless and sensing platforms, allowing telecom operators, aerospace manufacturers, and defense contractors to integrate high‑performance beam steering without large, power‑intensive hardware. By delivering adaptable, high‑precision phase control, Phase Metron’s solutions support the scaling of 5G/6G infrastructure and next‑generation communication systems.
