MAS Flat-Panel Terminal

Electronically steered flat-panel Ku-band antenna system for GEO connectivity on the move.

Preliminary specifications — subject to change during development.

TESART MAS electronically steered flat-panel antenna, concept

Overview

The electronically steered flat antenna opens new possibilities for mobile and fixed satellite communications via geostationary satellites. With a phased array and fully electronic beam steering it provides reliable connectivity on the move — on trains, ships and road vehicles — and at fixed sites. Ka-band version in development.

Key features

Low-profile housing that does not disturb vehicle aerodynamics

Works with standard Ku-band GEO satellite networks

Automatic satellite tracking while moving

No moving parts, high reliability

Dual-beam operation (two satellites at once)

Lightweight design and fast deployment

Optimized power consumption
