This new generation of space requires capacity at scale for dynamic missions. That's why we:. - built the most powerful commercial multi-orbit phased array in 9 months (LEO, MEO, GEO).- assembled in 5 days.- will be deploying and operational for customers on multiple continents.
We have successfully demonstrated that our Portal system can deliver 1kW of transmit power and sub-picowatt receive, supporting LEO, MEO and GEO. With arrayed configurations of this module, Northwood has built the highest power commercial communications phased array.
