Satcom

New generation of GaN based SSPAs/BUCs for satcom

Using cutting-edge GaN technology, the new SSPA/BUC family offers outstanding performance in outdoor or indoor operations for civil and government & defence applications

Multicarrier operation

No memory effects and limited back off guaranteeing unlimited carriers.

Modularity

A combination in phase of band SSPAs delivers output powers up to a few kWs on a built-in redundancy and hot swappable amplification modules.

Configurability

Several options to configure the product in redundancy are available, including 1:0, 1:1 and 2:1.

Efficiency & reliability

Super linearity for maximum useable output power to provide customised linearisation independent of the modulation method used.
Robust performance guaranteed through individual unit testing over temperature at factory. Built-in output isolator for protection against reflected power.
Advanced packaging and cooling techniques enable the equipment to be operated in the toughest environments.
Built-in up converter plus high stability internal reference for BUC.

Monitoring & control

Full M&C capability through RS-485/USB (ASCII commands) or with the option of an Ethernet port (Telnet, HTTP with embedded user-friendly web page or SNMP).
Discrete lines for mute and turn on/off functions and a summary alarm (Form C relay and discrete) for speedy operation.

Space

New generation of GaN based SSPAs for space missions

Using cutting-edge GaN technology, the new SSPA family offers outstanding performance with space qualification

Efficiency & reliability

Based on GaN technology Celestia TTI’s SSPAs are capable to deliver high output power maximizing the DC to RF conversion efficiency.
High linearity for maximum useable output power to provide customised linearisation independent of the modulation method used.
Robust performance guaranteed through individual fully space qualification.

High functionality & compact packaging

Supplied with a dedicated DC-DC converter with integrated EMI filter and highly efficient and low spurious operation. Each unit includes galvanic isolation and several internal protections against under-voltage, over-voltage, RF overdrive and output load mismatch (built-in isolator), as well as guarantee a multipaction free operation.
Availability of fully automatic operating modes as automatic gain control (AGC) and automatic level control (ALC).

Monitoring & control

Commanded by high level pulsed signals in which several analog telemetry signals are implemented in a compact and low weight design.

Heritage

Celestia TTI’s has achieved TRL-9 in several commercial and military programs.
