Containerized Digital Array

Transportable ground station in a shipping container that can talk to several satellites at once, aimed at defense and enterprise users who need to set up quickly in remote or contested places.

Why it matters

Fixed ground stations are easy targets and slow to build. A station that ships in a container and works with many satellites at once adds resilience for military satellite communications.

How the technology works

Independently controlled antenna modules form an electronically steered array. A digital beamformer combines them so the array can hold several beams toward different satellites simultaneously.
