Uplink capabilities added to Quadsat antenna testing range

Quadsat antenna testing range adds frequencies, uplink capabilities

The Quadsat range for RF measurement comprises: QS 1-18 DL (downlink tests, covering S-KU band), QS 6-24 DL (downlink tests, X – KA low band), QS 17-31 DL (downlink, KA band), QS 6-24 DL/UL (downlink and uplink, X-KA low band) and QS 17-31 DL/UL (downlink and uplink, KA band).

They are described as “a compact antenna testing solution” consisting of a drone and custom-built payload, ground control station, RTK (real-time kinematics) system, and software for antenna test and measurement.

“Having already proven the effectiveness of the Quadsat system to perform a wide range of measurements with a high level of accuracy, we have a lot of interest in the ability of our system to cover more frequency ranges and deliver extra measurements,” said Quadsat CTO, Lars Bach.

“With this range we are responding to that demand. Our product team is continuing to develop innovative solutions to address current and future challenges for antenna testing.”

The company first raised productising its drone-based antenna and radio frequency test and measurement system back in November 2022.

As opposed to a managed service only available via QuadSAT engineers, it means the system can also be acquired for third-party testing needs.

Note that Quadsat is also launching a BETA version of a cloud platform, for users to share data and reports with other stakeholders. Approved users can access the data in realtime, which will help to drastically speed up approval processes, says the company.
