C-COM (CMI) will open a new R&D facility for the development and commercialization of its Electronically Steered Phased Array antenna.

The new site is located on the campus of the University of Waterloo, Ontario and will open in January 2023.

Bilal Awada, CTO of C-COM Satellite, commented on the news.

“The new Waterloo R&D center represents a strategic expansion for C-COM. It taps into the wealth of tech talent and the availability of a highly advanced on-campus antenna test facility. It also reinforces our commitment to commercializing the newly developed phased array technology.”

The company has developed a low-profile, lightweight, Ka-band vehicle-mounted antenna. It can track GEO, LEO and MEO constellations while in motion. The antenna technology is based on small 4×4 transmit and receive phased array modules. These are the main building blocks for bigger-size antennas and can conform to any curved surfaces.

This new antenna technology is a result of more than 6 years of R&D collaboration between C-COM and the University of Waterloo. The company expects to develop different models of this antenna which can be deployed for several uses.

C-COM is a pioneer in the design, development, and manufacture of mobile satellite-based antenna systems.

C-COM Satellite Systems Inc. (CMI) is down 5.00 per cent, trading at C$1.33 per share at 1:00 pm ET.
