The AeroLESA from Get SAT is an Electronically Steered Antenna (ESA) Terminal for in-flight connectivity and entertainment. It operates in the Ku-band from 10.7 to 12.75 GHz (Rx) and 13.75 to 14.5 GHz (Tx) and provides simultaneous connections with Geostationary Orbit (GEO) and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations. This terminal supports multi-orbit, multi-constellation architecture, allowing for instantaneous switching between GEO and LEO orbits while in flight and ensuring a stable connection. It has an integrated modem, an Antenna Control Unit (ACU), tracking sensors, a downconverter, and a full RF front end. The terminal fits seamlessly onto a wide range of airborne platforms, including wide-body aircraft, executive aviation, and Transport aircraft. It requires a DC supply of 28 V and consumes less than 1300 W of power.

The AeroLESA has an azimuth coverage of 360° and an elevation coverage from 10° to 90° (electronically steerable). It has a switching time of less than 400 µs, a re-acquisition time of better than 100 ms, and a short transition time for fiber-like connectivity in high-data-rate applications requiring communications mobility. This terminal has been integrated into Safran Passenger Innovations (SPI)’s RAVE AeroConnect Ku solution and is available for both line-fit and retrofit on all major aircraft platforms, most notably as part of Airbus’ Airspace HBCplus. It supports global coverage networks, like Inmarsat Global Xpress, SES, and Intelsat, for seamless satellite coverage. The terminal is available in low-profile enclosures that measure 68 x 47 cm (Tx) and 58.5 x 90.0 cm (Rx) with an Ethernet interface for management.

This ESA terminal has no moving parts and does not require calibration. It has an easy installation and integration process that allows operators to complete the process without the need for time-consuming and costly visits of technicians.
