The VALOR Series from Reticulate Micro are Electronically Steerable Antennas (ESA) that operate from 10.7 to 12.7 GHz (Rx) and 14 to 14.5 GHz (Tx). They are designed for scalability, multi-network, and multi-orbit connectivity across land mobile, airborne, UAVs, maritime and mobile or man-pack applications. These ESAs can support antenna apertures of 7.5 cm and provide a G/T of up to 11.7 dB/K with an EIRP of 66.5 dBmi. They are modem-agnostic for internal/external integration options, allowing a level of assurance that any system will be future-proofed even as modem technologies evolve. These RHCP/LHCP antennas support half-duplex and full-duplex modes with up to 64 x 64 elements in full-duplex mode. They have up to 8 Rx/Tx tiles, which can be increased to meet the needs without the heavy cost of non-recurring engineering.
The VALOR Series ESAs consume less than 50 W of power and have options to be solar-powered, enabling net-zero carbon emissions. They feature Reticulate’s differentiated post-quantum encryption, with options to integrate VALOR with VAST™ video compression and VESPER™ terminal management solutions. VALOR™ antennas print discrete components directly on the PCB rather than mounting. This unique board design allows users to scale up to any size and manufacture conformal solutions that allow for the seamless integration of advanced products into various platforms, specifically important in Aero applications.
