RF & Microwave Modules for Satellites & SATCOM Image

Satellite & SATCOM RF & Microwave Modules

Kratos designs and manufactures compact, reliable, and customizable modules for satellites and satellite communications (SATCOM) ground stationsbased on radio frequency (RF), microwave, and digital technologies . Our solutions support geostationary orbit (GEO), low-earth orbit (LEO), and medium-earth orbit (MEO) missions, enabling uplink, downlink, telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C), and high-rate data transmission. Depending on mission needs, Kratos integrates classic radiation-hardened components as well as radiation-tolerant commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and automotive-grade parts—each with verified radiation performance data.
