High-Gain Antennas

Our products

The emerging demand for satellite missions for high-throughput or Earth observation drives an increasing need for antenna systems operating at high frequencies, i.e., X, Ku, and Ka bands.

Because of the strong atmospheric attenuation at these frequencies, satellite mission link budgets require high-gain antenna solutions while minimizing bulkiness and footprint.

To meet this demand, Anywaves’ specialized engineering team has been working on developing viable solutions as an optimal balance between electromagnetic performance, costs, and compliance with qualification standards. In particular, Anywaves proposes three antenna product lines, each of which is more suitable for one application than another, depending on the customer’s need: direct radiating arrays, reflectarrays, and slotted-waveguide array antennas.

Slotted Waveguide Array Antenna

Slotted-waveguide arrays are flat antenna solutions long known for their compactness, ease of mass production, and ability to handle high power levels. Based on this technology, Anywaves offers…

Innovation

Our company specializes in developing and designing custom-made antennas tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients. We have a team of experts dedicated to creating high-performance antennas for various applications. Our antennas undergo a thorough process, from the initial concept creation and design to testing, qualification, and marketing, always with a practical and innovative approach. Our objective is to deliver pioneering and top-performing antennas that provide our clients with the best possible technological solutions.

Rigorous Project Management

We work closely with our clients to identify the project scope, objectives, and constraints, which allows us to create a comprehensive project plan. In order to reduce the risks, we adhere to strict space industry standards, including ECSS. Our rigorous project management process follows classic milestones for space projects, from Preliminary Design Review (PDR) to Design Review Board (DRB). Our approach to project management is designed to deliver the best possible results for our clients, with a focus on quality, reliability, and performance.

Testing Process

In order to guarantee the durability and functionality of our antennas under the severe environmental conditions they will encounter from launch to orbit, we conduct a series of rigorous tests. These tests include qualification tests and acceptance tests. The purpose of the qualification tests is to demonstrate that one or more models of the product can withstand the various life cycles of a space product. On the other hand, acceptance tests are carried out on each flight model to ensure that the product delivered to the customer is functional and durable.

Personalized Support

To ensure that antenna development is precisely customized to the mission and satellite in question, our Innovation Division experts work closely with our clients to comprehend their project’s specific needs. Our vast experience and established technical proficiency enable us to offer our clients comprehensive and personalized assistance throughout all stages of project development, ranging from design to production and from testing to qualification.

Q&A

With our extensive experience across diverse projects, our team of experts is adept at handling a wide array of antenna concepts. These include high-gain antennas for telecommunications, inter-satellite links, and payload telemetry, as well as wideband antennas for spectrum surveillance, GNSS, LEO PNT, and more. We also specialize in integrated and active antennas for various applications. Explore our range of products above, and utilize the filters to discover the ideal match for your specific requirements.

Yes, our antennas are designed with scalability in mind. We understand that each project has unique requirements and performance criteria. Our team of experts is experienced in tailoring antenna designs to meet specific needs, ensuring that you can adapt the performance of our antennas to your exact requirements. Whether it’s adjusting the gain, beamwidth, frequency range, or other parameters, we have the flexibility to customize our antennas to align with your specifications. We work closely with you to understand your objectives and deliver scalable antenna solutions that meet your specific performance needs effectively.

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!

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.

Absolutely! At Anywaves, we understand that choosing the right antenna is crucial. Our team of experts is here to assist you. We offer personalized consultation services tailored to your specific needs. By understanding your requirements and applications, we can recommend the most suitable antenna from our extensive product range. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us, and we’ll be more than happy to guide you in selecting the perfect antenna solution.

Whether your project is big or small, we can provide a single EM antenna for testing as well as cater for volume orders. Depending on your lead time and our availibility, we may even be able to ship it within a few days!
