Problem
Current wireless, radar, and LiDAR systems rely on bulky RF hardware and conventional digital signal processing, which leads to high power consumption, large size, and limited bandwidth—constraints that are unacceptable for mobile, airborne, space, and edge platforms where weight, power, and latency are critical.
Solution
Stellar Phronesis offers AI‑photonics wireless processors that integrate photonic integrated circuits with AI‑driven signal processing. The photonic architecture provides orders‑of‑magnitude reductions in package size and weight while delivering instantaneous bandwidth in the tens of gigahertz range. AI algorithms perform real‑time environmental self‑correction, adaptive MIMO processing, and dynamic bandwidth allocation, resulting in significantly lower latency and power consumption. This combination enables high‑resolution radar, high‑speed LiDAR, and low‑latency satellite links on platforms with strict SWaP (size, weight, and power) limits. The technology supports a broad spectrum of applications, from 6G massive MIMO to direct satellite‑to‑device communications.
Target Audience
Primary customers are system integrators and OEMs developing wireless, radar, LiDAR, and satellite communication solutions for mobile, airborne, space, and edge computing platforms that require ultra‑compact, low‑power, high‑throughput hardware.
