Engineering space communication
We are an internationally recognised team focused on developing communications and on-board processing technologies for future satellite systems including broadband multibeam Ka-band GEOs, Satellite IoT LEOs and CubeSats.
Our key strengths include:
- beamforming
- spotbeam coverage optimisation
- resource allocation
- direction of arrival estimation and tracking
- frequency estimation and tracking
- software defined radio
- reconfigurable earth stations
- digitally implemented digital modulators and demodulators
- pattern recognition using artificial intelligence
- channel modelling of optical satellite channels
- robust Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) on-board processing implementation.
We host a node of the Smart Satellite (SmartSat) CRC, as well as other industry projects including a Defence Innovation Network contract.
