Why it matters

Space communication is imperative for sovereign capabilities.

Yet, as more satellites enter our orbit, ground station network capacity has stagnated and is still based on difficult and slow to scale technology.

How it works

Quasar’s ground station technology will support up to hundreds of simultaneous satellite communications channels and missions on a single antenna

Quasar has developed a new solution to ground station technology based on their patented multi beam Phased Array - a multi beam antenna maintained at cryogenic temperatures. Coupling their system with software, they are able to process hundreds of satellite data streams. Intuitively, customers can leverage Quasar’s technology using standard protocols and APIs.
