About
Beyond Gravity Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) are essential components for high-performance satellite systems. LNAs amplify weak signals from satellites, making them easier to detect and process by the receiver. Beyond Gravity LNAs are designed to meet the demanding requirements of space applications, offering exceptional performance and reliability in even the most challenging environments.
Beyond Gravity Ka-band Low Noise Amplifiers meet the highest performance and reliability requirements for satellite applications. Utilizing the latest mHEMT MMIC technologies, our LNAs offer excellent noise performance, small size, low mass, and efficient manufacturing.
Our Ka-band LNAs cover the full band from 27.5 to 31 GHz and are built using the latest MMIC technologies, including mHEMT LNA, for excellent electrical performance and reliability. They also exhibit low DC power consumption and small dimensions.
The modular design of our LNAs allows them to be configured as single LNAs (Slice) with secondary DC power (to be supplied from an external EPC or CPSU) or as Multipacks (up to Quad-packs) with either secondary DC or with internal DC/DC supply. Our LNAs can also be configured for a variety of DC-power and TM/TC interfaces.
