For broadband, mobile satellite communications applications such as autonomous driving, a high gain, scanning antenna is required. The satellite communications industry, however, is dominated by dish antennas mounted on motorized gimbals for these use cases. These solutions are too large, heavy, and power-consuming to offer solutions for consumer applications. We have addressed these issues by commercializing a novel, electronically scanned antenna technology, which is achieved using diffractive metasurfaces and high-birefringence radio frequency liquid crystals. This technology is positioned for mass production by leveraging the manufacturing capabilities of the LC display industry. |
