Knowledge Base Presented By GETSAT "How SATCOM Vastly Improves Small UAV Flexibility" - UASweekly.com
The article discusses the limitations of line-of-sight (LOS) communication for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in military operations. LOS communication restricts missions to less than 100 miles, impacting image resolution and video quality. The article highlights the need for better communications solutions, particularly for class 3 UAVs. Get SAT has developed a small SATCOM terminal that offers range extension to large class 2 and class 3 UAVs, previously only available to larger platforms. The terminal utilizes Get SATs patented InterFLAT panel antenna and fast-tracking technologies. It operates on both GEO and MEO satellite constellations, providing efficient bandwidth utilization for low-altitude missions. The terminal enables real-time intelligence gathering, dynamic retasking, and improved communications between UAVs and the base.
