Key highlights

PW2022-111 is a high-performance wideband antenna designed for TT&C applications in harsh space environments. It features an excellent axial ratio over the entire frequency band, making it ideal for demanding and reliable space communication links. This is a 2-in-1 antenna with a wide bandwidth which allows for simultaneous TX and RX operations on each of the ports, mitigating the need for two separate antennas and cables.

This antenna is a perfect choice for a variety of space applications, including LEO, MEO, and GEO. Specifically, it is designed to overcome challenges present in the LEO environment over long mission lives, such as Corona, Multiplication, Atomic Oxygen, MMOD, etc. The S-band TT&C antenna is lightweight and easy to integrate. It is also available with Test Hats to facilitate testing and integration.
