We offer a range of off-the-shelf antennas perfectly designed according to space standards as an answer to the satellites constellations market’s needs : TT&C, Data Downlink and GNSS.
We are also able to cover your spatial missions specific needs by developing custom antennas : high gain antennas (payload telemetry, inter-satellite link, telecommunications, etc.), wide band antennas (spectrum surveillance, GNSS, LEO PNT, etc.) or any other type of antennas and applications (integrated antennas, active antennas, etc.).
All of our antennas are available in two different versions: an engineering model and a flight model. Both have the same electrical performances as they use the same materials and processes. On flight models, we perform meticulous and rigorous acceptance tests.

Q&A
Engineering Models (EM) and Flight Models (FM) of antennas are nearly identical in terms of materials, processes, and electrical performance. However, acceptance testing is performed exclusively on Flight Models. Additionally, Flight Models of S-band TT&C, X-band Payload Telemetry, and GNSS All-bands antennas feature a special radome anti-ESD paint coating
Our qualification testing process for antennas involves subjecting them to demanding tests to ensure their durability and performance in space conditions. These tests include functional measurements, random vibration, shock, vacuum thermal cycling, long thermal cycling. We also conduct power handling tests for transmission antennas and perform rigorous final inspections before concluding the qualification phase. For more detailed information on our testing process, don’t hesitate to contact us!
Our off-the-shelf antennas have been specifically designed and tested to withstand LEO (Low Earth Orbit) environment. If your mission will take place in another Orbit (MEO, GEO…), we can study if our COTS antennas can match your requirements. Otherwise, we can either adapt our antennas or build from scratch a dedicated custom-made product.
A test cap (or test hat) is a ground segment equipment which allows to perform an end-to-end RF test directly on your satellite. With this equipment, you will no longer need to perform RF tests in anechoic chamber. It will save you a lot of time and money!
To ensure the functionality and durability of each flight model delivered to customers, acceptance tests are conducted. These tests, while lighter than qualification tests, still involve an S-parameter test, random vibration test, and thermal cycling at ambient pressure. The process concludes with a final S-parameter test and an external visual inspection to guarantee the quality of the antenna.
