‘Dielectric-loaded high-power Output de-MUltiplexer at Ku/ka-band’
ESA project for the development and space assessment of novel user terminal Ku/Ka band diplexers for space communications, ground segment (ESA Artes Advanced Technology, Contract AO/1-9250/18/NL/NR)
OBJECTIVES
To develop 250 W-class, Ku-band and Ka-band two-channel output de-multiplexers with 240-250 MHz channel bandwidth and with 30 per cent footprint reduction in comparison to the state of the art. Engineering Models (EM) will be designed, manufactured and tested experimentally.
