The Anywaves Compact X-Band Antenna is a TRL 9, flight-proven antenna for payload telemetry downlink from LEO satellites to ground stations. Operating from 7.9 to 8.5 GHz with a realized gain of 15.5 dBi at 8.2 GHz, it enables high data rate links in a 100 × 100 mm footprint with just 6.5 mm of protrusion above the satellite panel. Available in LHCP or RHCP, it provides high-quality single circular polarization with an axial ratio below 1 dB at boresight.
Designed for nanosatellites and LEO platforms, the Compact X-Band Antenna features a directive narrow beam (~20° HPBW) that concentrates all RF energy towards the ground station during the pass, maximizing data throughput. Its PEEK Radome ensures protection against thermal and radiation environments. Compatible with the Anywaves Test Hat for X-Band Antennas, it is supplied with full acceptance testing on flight models. ITAR Free.
