Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communications networks are redefining the concept of anytime, anywhere internet connectivity, offering high speed broadband access services for consumer, enterprise, and government agencies.  With the advent of new direct-to-device (D2D) services, LEO-based services are poised to further expand coverage, utilizing existing cellular based mobile device technologies. 

Today’s LEO platforms utilize  millimeter-wave frequencies such as Ka-, E-, Q-, V- and W-Bands for uplinks and downlinks, inter-satellite links (ISLs) and telemetry, tracking and command (TT&C) channels, requiring higher power efficiency, linearity, and signal gain for optimal performance.

MACOM provides a broad portfolio of high-performance optical, RF, microwave and millimeter-wave semiconductor solutions to help customers maximize data throughput, spectral efficiency, reliability, power consumption and overall link budget.  MACOM’s portfolio includes Free Space Optics, RF over Fiber, SSPAs and linearization solutions along with a full complement of semiconductor solutions including power amplifiers, low noise amplifiers, switches and control products. MACOM technologies are engineered to maximize RF efficiency, reduce system size, weight and power (SWaP), and enable reliable operation in demanding space and ground-based communications platforms. As LEO networks continue to scale, MACOM is helping power the next generation of global connectivity.
