Satellite Mission Assurance

As the space industry experiences disruption not seen since the original space race, numerous companies are gearing up to provide space-based capabilities with new risk profiles, increased volumes, and decreased costs. Whether it is high-throughput satellite (HTS) microwave payloads or telemetry, tracking, and control (TT&C), Keysight’s design and validation tools provide greater assurance that your satellite and its subsystems work the duration of the mission.

Application Notes

Better Satellite Link Distortion Testing

The capacity and complexity of space-based communications is growing exponentially. Signal power remains a key metric, and the need for more power across wider channels means that power amplifiers spend more time inside their nonlinear operating region. The result of this is signal distortion, and systems designers need to find ways to either reduce this distortion or work around it. Making accurate, insightful measurements of this distortion is the first step in solving the problem.
