High-Precision Fixed LEO/MEO Tracking Antenna Systems

Engineered for stable, high-throughput links to fast-moving satellites—with near-zero backlash and exceptional pointing accuracy.

Dynamic LEO/MEO Missions Demand Fast, Accurate and Reliable Tracking Performance

As LEO and MEO constellations expand, ground operators require antennas that can maintain stable, high-speed links to satellites rapidly moving across the orbital arc. This demands precise pointing, low backlash and robust mechanical performance—even in open-air environments and high-frequency bands.

Kratos’ Fixed LEO/MEO Antenna Systems are purpose-built to meet these challenges. Designed for open-air operation without a radome, they deliver exceptional pointing accuracy, consistent high-gain performance and stable throughput across LEO/MEO mission profiles. Controlled by the advanced NGC2 Antenna Control System, these antennas support near-zero backlash motion, smooth tracking and highly reliable multi-axis movement.

Reflector versatility, advanced Gregorian optics and configuration options—including linear or circular polarization and conical scanning feeds—make these antennas adaptable to evolving communication needs. Installed on a high-precision XY positioner, they maintain continuous coverage without a keyhole effect, ensuring uninterrupted connectivity for mission-critical applications.
