QuadSAT has launched a productized version of their drone-based antenna test and verification system. Previously available only as a managed service delivered by QuadSAT engineers, users can now carry out their own testing, anytime, anywhere, using QuadSAT’s testing solution.
QuadSAT’s systems is fully automated, flexible as well as location independent and consists of state-of-the-art drone technology, integrated with a custom RF payload, as well as automation and measurement software. A broad range of testing missions are supported.
There is no longer a need for QuadSAT engineers to be present on site. Users will receive detailed training from QuadSAT prior to deployment and support will be available, as required. The managed service, which involves QuadSAT engineers carrying out the testing, will continue to be available, when desired.
The availability of the solution as a product was made possible through funding received from the ESA ARTES Core Competitiveness program and support from partners such as the Global VSAT Forum (GVF).
Being able to deliver our solution as a product will help us to significantly scale deployment, bringing accurate yet cost-efficient testing to more users across the globe. While we will continue to deliver the service where it makes more sense, we anticipate many entities having to conduct ongoing tests will benefit from having their own version in house together with the training to deploy it effectively.”
