Through a competitive-bidding process, Raytheon Network Centric Systems selected CPI's high-power X-band SuperLinear(TM) traveling wave tube amplifier for the NMT military satellite communications (satcom) program.
[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] L-3 Electron Technologies has introduced its new model 8923H dual-band, 300 Watt, 30 GHz/175 W 45 GHz Traveling Wave Tube amplifier designed for military satellite communication uplink applications.
ETI's primary business areas include the manufacture of Traveling Wave Tubes (TWTs), Electronic Power Conditioners/Power Supplies (EPCs), Traveling Wave Tube Amplifiers (TWTAs), Passive Microwave components (Input & Output Multiplexers, Filters, RF Switches, Triplexers, etc), Xenon Ion Thrusters and Power Supplies.
22, 2003 Model dB-4314P (300W CW Output Power in Ku Band) and Model dB-4500-0610P (500W CW Output Power in 6-10 GHz Frequency Band) Designed For Reliable Operation in Harsh Environments, High Altitudes dB Control, designer and manufacturer of high-power microwave amplifiers and transmitters, is introducing two new high-power traveling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs) for manned and unmanned airborne platforms, electronic warfare (EW) threat simulation and electronic counter measures (ECM) in Booth 320 at the 40th AOC International Symposium and Convention in Dayton, Ohio, September 21-24, 2003.
The CHPA0618-1 power amplifier delivers superior bandwidth and power through our Spatium technology and is a compact, affordable, reliable alternative to traveling wave tube amplifiers," said Scott Behan, vice president of marketing at CAP Wireless.
The order marks the second contract for EDD's linearized traveling wave tube amplifiers (LTWTA), a recent product enhancement that is added to satellites to ensure clearer communications.
Encoder, modem and transmitter functions are all managed from within a single application, eliminating the need for separate control software for each of the antenna control unit, modem, encoder, solid state power amplifiers and traveling wave tube amplifiers.
For this contract, DRS will manufacture, integrate, test and deliver subassemblies, including electronic power conditioners, which, when integrated into customer-provided equipment, comprise C-Band Traveling Wave Tube Amplifiers (TWTAs).
