About
The Anywaves Slotted Waveguide Array Antenna is a custom-designed, high-gain flat antenna solution for satellite payload applications in Ku and Ka band. Based on a hybrid series/parallel waveguide feed architecture engineered through electromagnetic dispersion analysis, it achieves gains above 20 dBi within a fractional bandwidth of approximately 5% in circular polarization (LHCP or RHCP). Designed for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) payloads, inter-satellite link (ISL) communications and high-data-rate downlinks, its full-metal construction makes it ESD-free, thermoelastically robust, and capable of handling high RF power levels without dielectric degradation. With a profile thickness below 10 mm, it imposes a minimal volume impact on the platform. All parameters—frequency, gain, footprint, beam characteristics—are defined jointly with the customer and tailored to each mission. It is ITAR Free for worldwide delivery.
