RF Communications
Spaceflight and critical ground applications require high reliability RF components and subsystems to survive
harsh launch environments and operating extremes... on Earth, in orbit, on the moon, and beyond.

RF Sensors
AnTrust
From proliferated LEO, airborne platforms, and tactical locations: RF sensing facilitates all-weather situational awareness of a targeted environment or the entire Earth, through Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and radiometric methods. AnTrust proprietary algorithms deliver unique RF Sensing capabilities, accessed through a Software as a Service (SaaS) product for strategic customers.

Engineering Services
AnTrust
Our engineers have decades of combined experience in the development of RF and antenna devices, subsystems, and solutions. Our projects are concurrently engineered in collaboration with our mechanical, thermal, electronics, and software engineers to ensure mission success while on orbit or deployed in theater. We leverage finite element methods for RF, mechanical, and thermal analyses, in addition to physical optics for electrically large subsystems. Our solutions are validated throughout the design process; our test results are used to further correlate our models, for structural modal response, thermal distortion, or radiation pattern performance.
People
Description
AnTrust personnel have decades of spaceflight hardware experience spanning over a dozen missions. We provide RF Communications hardware from concept and design, to fabrication, testing, space qualification, integration, and delivery. Past performance examples of delivered hardware includes multi-band High Gain Antennas for science data links, Low Gain Antennas for command and telemetry, and waveguide filters for spectrum-sensitive applications. In late 2024, AnTrust antennas will provide the communications link between Earth and NASA’s first robotic rover VIPER.
