MARKET SEEING EXCEPTIONAL

FUTURE POTENTIAL

Satellite business is a very fast growing market but still very niche.

Many big players, with very ambitious projects, are now clamoring to get involved:

All of these grand schemes will require antenna design expertise

Branson and Wyler pushing ahead

with One Web

Musk wants

4,000 microsats

Gates funding

Kymeta

Zuckerberg wants

To ‘fill the sky’

Entering the GOLDEN AGE OF

THE SATELLITE BUSINESS? O3B, Inmarsat, and many others have large-scale goals

Antenna Design = Mass Collaboration

To ensure the operators, service providers, and hardware partners are happy...

close relationships and group efforts are required to design what is both needed

and what is wanted.

With Hardware Vendors we design, adapt and integrate different equipment including:

RF Antennas and Feeds;

New Transceivers such as 3W eTria (ViaSat), 1-2W Jupiter radio (HNS), 3W/5W

Transceivers (Skyware Technologies);

Motorized Pol for beam switching (if required);

With Satellite Operators, C-COM works very closely to meet their requirements for

antenna approvals and certifications including:

Conducting range testing for antenna patterns on several samples;

Demonstrate auto-pointing capabilities under different conditions (inclined

surface, pointing accuracy, etc..);

Meet wind load conditions;

With Service Providers, C-COM ensures full system compatibility with modem and

satellite service of interest including:

Develop specific interface with used modem to support mobility;

Close collaboration on new modem updates and Beta test prior to release over the

air

Case Studies

• New Jupiter HTS service offering was designed for fixed deployments.

• By design, the Polarization was manually set.

• C-COM designed, built and had Certified an Auto-Polarization unit that turns

the system into a fully Automatic solution for Mobile customers

Ka-98H

The Yahsat integration required manipulating a table of 40 geo

specific beams to allow the user to press one button for

deployment anywhere in the beam coverage areas.

HTS Modem integrated:

HNS HN 9600/9800 (US, MEA, Russia)

HNS HT1100/HT1300 (worldwide)

Yahsat....

Hughes (Jupiter / YahClick)

Viasat E-Tria Change

A new tria was introduced about 18 months after initial deployment.

New Feed Arm modifications needed to be made NOT just to new customers but to

systems that were already deployed in the field. Eutelsat customers had to follow.

Eutelsat (KA-SAT)

Avanti (Hylas)

Problem: Anomaly discovered in the .98m fixed solution deployed by Eutelsat.

C-COM Solution: Engineered and produced a .98m solution that provide an automatic

3rd axis (Polarization) to allow for a mobile solution on Hylas HTS offering

Problem: To allow mobile customers automatic Polarization for beam switching via

motorized 3rd axis. C-COM Solution: Engineered and produced a .98m solution that provide

an automatic 3rd axis (Polarization) to allow for a mobile solution on Hylas HTS offeringThe only 3-axis auto-acquire on

the market today for Avanti

• BLUE SKY POTENTIAL – UNIVERSITY OF

WATERLOO PROJECT

• C-COM’s project described by leading Industry

Researcher as “THE HOLY GRAIL OF THE

ANTENNA INDUSTRY”.

• Continuing C-COM tradition of revolutionising the

antenna industry, the project seeks to use

advanced materials to shrink physical profile of

satellite antennae and vastly improve throughput.

• Funded by Government of Canada.

• Project is in advanced stages – news likely by Q2

2016.

• C-COM owns all rights to Intellectual Property.
