CCX Technologies is developing an innovative electronic beam steerable dielectric resonator antenna in a robust compact form. The IK-800 antenna is designed to offer fast steering capable of tracking satellites while in motion, making it well-suited for mobile platforms. This antenna intends to support a wide bandwidth to facilitate fast data transfers for a multitude of signal varieties. The IK-800 is designed to support a diverse range of applications, including SATCOM in-flight connectivity for commercial, business, and military aviation.
Applications
SATCOM Connectivity
This antenna will offer improved performance in a smaller, more aerodynamic form. The antenna’s lightweight form intends to maximize connectivity performance without compromising the aircraft’s aerodynamic form—leading to decreased fuel usage and improved flight efficiency. With accurate rapid electronic beam steering, the IK-800 intends to offer high speed data transmission and reliable in-flight connectivity.
UAV Compatibility
The compact size of this antenna facilitates its use on smaller aircrafts, including Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), providing the UAV with reliable high speed connectivity and Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) coverage. With an optimized weight, this antenna is designed to operate on UAV's without degrading their performance.
