Space debris and mission-critical SATCOM

Explore how rising LEO traffic and space debris reshape SATCOM risk – impacting collision exposure, operations, and system design in an increasingly crowded orbital environment.

Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in modern RF systems

Explore how signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) defines signal clarity in SATCOM systems – to support link stability and performance expectations, inform link budgets, and influence real-world operating conditions.

Error vector magnitude (EVM) and linearity in n...

Learn how error vector magnitude (EVM) affects LNB linearity in Earth observation ground stations and why higher OIP3 is critical to protect BER and margin.

What Is noise figure in SATCOM?

Learn what noise figure means in SATCOM, how it’s defined, how it’s measured, and why it matters for LNAs, LNBs, and real-world link performance.

What is phase noise and why is it important?

Discover what phase noise is, how it affects satellite signals, and why low phase noise matters, including jitter, time and frequency domains, measurement, and SATCOM standards.

Custom LNBs or off-the-shelf?

When off-the-shelf LNBs fail, custom designs solve extreme heat, vibration, frequency, and military SATCOM demands
