Although Geostationary-Equatorial-Orbit (GEO) satellites have achieved significant success
in conducting space missions, they cannot meet the 5G latency requirements due to the far …

Earth observation uses a large number of Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites (ca. 400). The
increasing resolution of their instruments has inflated the data volumes that need to be …

This paper focuses on a novel, conceptual data relay system for relaying data transfer
between low earth orbit (LEO) satellites and a gateway through a geostationary earth orbit …

High throughput data links from low Earth orbit satellites through a geostationary orbit
satellite data relay have been proposed to increase the available contact times to ground …

This paper describes the concept and the development of key components of a novel
multiple-beam antenna for satellite applications. The antenna is designed to be used in a …

Array-fed reflector antennas are often used on GEO satellites to realize multiple beams with
high gain. However, the directivity of these antennas suffers from relatively high scan loss …

To perform Earth observation, more and more satellites are equipped with high-resolution
sensors like hyperspectral imagers, which generate data at tens of Gbps. Researchers aim …

This paper presents the design and measurements of a simplified design approach for a 16×
8 switch matrix based on Radio Frequency Microelectromechanical System (RF MEMS) …

This paper presents a simplified design approach for a 16× 8 switch matrix based on Radio
