Problem
Existing satellite communication antennas designed for geostationary satellites struggle to support new space services that rely on multi-satellite constellations. Current antenna technologies are often large, expensive, and power-hungry, limiting the accessibility and affordability of satellite connectivity.
Solution
Scorpio Space develops compact and affordable electronically steered, multi-beam antennas (ESA) for satellite communication user terminals. Their technology enables high-speed, low-power, and cost-effective connectivity for various applications by supporting multi-satellite constellations. The ESA features a single aperture for both transmit and receive functions, reducing the number of RF components and overall cost. This innovative design aims to maximize the potential of satellite communications and make high-performance connectivity accessible to a wider range of users.
Target Audience
Scorpio Space targets government organizations, IoT solution providers, the aviation industry (both commercial and business), and the connected car sector.
