About
The QUASAR-WSANT is a Wideband Dual-Polarization S-Band Antenna covering both ITU-R receive and transmit bands (2025-2290 MHz) in a single compact unit. Built on proven augmented patch antenna technology. Integrates with QUASAR-STRX SDR transceiver for a complete end-to-end TMTC solution. Eliminates the need for two separate antennas for up- and downlink. Dual polarization (RHCP/LHCP) allows assigning uplink and downlink to separate ports or combining with a diplexer. Side-mounted SMP connectors for flexible mounting in compact satellite platforms.
