Traditionally, satellite ground terminals have been designed to operate in a dedicated fashion on a specific communication satellite or network.

Key Points: 
  • Traditionally, satellite ground terminals have been designed to operate in a dedicated fashion on a specific communication satellite or network.
  • The phased array antenna is utilized as the feed for the parabolic reflector when operating on a GEO satellite and as a standalone antenna when operating on a LEO or MEO satellite.
  • This configuration also allows MONDO to function concurrently as a traditional parabolic antenna on a GEO satellite and as a traditional ESA on a LEO/MEO satellite.
  • PathFinder intends to license this innovative antenna design to antenna manufacturers," said Roger McGarrahan, CEO of PathFinder Digital.
