The SPARTE e100 is a hybrid antenna addressing the telemetry applications in S-Band, including hypersonic test articles.

The antenna is a combination of an Electronic Beam Steering supporting any elevation from -5° up to +95° and a single-axis mechanical rotation of the patch panel providing unlimited azimuth. The patch panel’s size enables the SPARTE e100 to achieve telemetry reception performance comparable to that of a 1.2m diameter dual-axis antenna.

This is achieved with a significantly simpler mechanical design, ensuring easier maintenance throughout the antenna’s operational lifespan.

The SPARTE e100’s rapid tracking capabilities, reaching speeds of up to 60°/s in azimuth and virtually infinite in elevation, make it an ideal “lock-on” antenna.

The PPS®X00 plasma thruster (Hall effect) takes benefit of Safran’s long experience with electric propulsion to propose a very efficient product. PPS®X00 was designed to address the specific requirements inherent in the “New Space” market environment. With a lifespan exceeding 5,000 hours and very high specific impulse, the PPS®X00 is an extremely versatile thruster, making it ideal for all types of applications in its core market: low Earth orbit (LEO).

SEEING™ 130 Wide includes a spectral filter with 23 bands covering Blue, Green, Red, Near InfraRed and Red Edge MS, for a broad spectral range between 475 and 900nm. SEEING™ 130 Wide has a large Field of View of 6.3° x 4.3° / 54 x 36 km2 from a 500km/310 miles orbit.

In addition to its a thermal design within a robust structure, SEEING™ 130 Wide has a low SWaP, saving launch and operational costs.

The CORTEX Best Source Selector (BSS) is the ultimate choice for real-time telemetry source selection. It’s the go-to tool for pinpointing the best Telemetry source among multiple antennas tracking the same airframe across various channels. 

The Best Source Selector streamlines the selection process by automatically choosing the top Telemetry stream, even from up to 16 sources or more, using a combination of signal quality metrics and other criteria. With its extensive capabilities in aligning paths and compensating for delays, the CORTEX Best Source Selector ensures optimal source selection, no matter where the antennas are located or what kind of range infrastructure you’re working with.
