Global Konet, a leading innovative company in the country specializing in e-beam steering satellite antennas (ESA), participated in the world's largest space and aviation exhibition, "Satellite Show 2024," introducing five satellite antenna models and receiving favorable reviews and requests for business cooperation from global satellite communication operators.
The exhibition hall attracted the attention of visitors by displaying Ka-band Omega2, which has an OTM (On The Move) function and can be mounted on vehicles and ships, K-Flip, a folder-type bare pack model, Alpha2, a premium model of Ku-band, Mini, a half-sized compact model, and Flip42, which can be used without power in rugged terrain such as mountains.
With SpaceX, a global low-orbit (LEO) satellite communication service company well known as Falcon 9 rockets, and Etelsat OneWeb, which is scheduled to launch a low-orbit satellite business in the second half of this year, global satellite operators focused on flat-panel electron beam steering antennas (ESA Antenna), which are essential for low-orbit (LEO) satellite services.
Electrically Steerable Antenna is a panel antenna technology that can adjust the electron beam 360 degrees using a phase shift chip without mechanical movement of the antenna and is considered a key technology in the aerospace industry in the future.
Global Konet has commercialized five types of antennas, including Alpha, Alpha2, and Mini, which can be used simultaneously in geostationary orbit (GEO) and low orbit (LEO), and is the only Korean company that has export performance of ESA satellite antenna products, and global satellite communication operators are paying attention to Alpha2 and Mini products. In particular, Flip42 is a product specialized in supporting the communication of soldiers dispatched to areas with poor communication environments. It is a product suitable for military purposes that enables large-capacity Internet communication such as video for 3 hours without power supply, and plans to use 16 channels of chips to target the market based on price competitiveness.
"Global Konet has successfully completed POC tests in five countries, and based on this, we are preparing to certify standards such as CE, FCC, and MIL to expand exports, and through this, we are meeting the requirements of overseas customers." said Kim Yeon-gon, CEO of Global Konet. "At this event, we received a request for a prototype for POC from a low-orbit (LEO) satellite operator, and we will provide prototypes sequentially by giving priority considering business feasibility due to a flood of requests for demos for POC from geostationary satellites and IOT service providers."
With the development of microchip technology for satellite communication, broadband service is possible with ultra-small antennas, and the demand for IOT terminals integrating low-cost antennas and modems that can be used for urban aviation and space internet such as drones, UAVs, and UAM is expected to lead the satellite communication equipment market.
In line with these market changes, Global Konet signed an MOU related to the "BBIoT Terminal Business" with the IOT baseband company during this event. Through this, it is possible to provide BBIoT terminals that accommodate 2500 terminals in a 5Mhz bandwidth and provide 3K to 3Mbps services customized to global customers as products for small and medium-sized fishing boats.
The BBIoT model can be used for marine surveillance, borderline unmanned surveillance systems, and NLL surveillance as a product that can be mounted on unmanned aerial vehicles. In the case of the existing flat panel antenna, it was difficult to apply due to its heavy weight and high price, but it became possible to apply it through miniaturization and weight reduction. Through this, the communication radius of the unmanned aerial vehicle was expanded from 15 km to 500 km or more, and the range of activities was expanded worldwide through beam switching.
"We have strengthened our ties with existing export customers at this Satellite Show 2024 exhibition and laid the foundation for participation in the low-orbit (LEO) market," a company official said. "We believe that the market's keen interest is in response to the technological innovation of our products, and we will preempt the market based on our high technological prowess."
