Airbus Defence & Space

Airbus Defence & Space

Airbus is a major contributor to space exploration and human spaceflight, as well as a leading manufacturer of Earth observation, navigation, science and telecommunications satellites. Its portfolio ranges from the ExoMars rover and the European Service Module for the Orion spacecraft to the Ariane 5 launcher, to be soon followed by the Ariane 6.

Selected by the French Space Agency to develop the CO3D Earth observation program, Airbus Defence and Space has selected ANYWAVES to supply the antennas that will provide telecommand and telemetry to the four satellites making up the CO3D constellation.

French Space Agency

French Space Agency

The Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES) is the government agency responsible for shaping and implementing France’s space policy in Europe.

Its task is to invent the space systems of the future, bring space technologies to maturity and guarantee France’s independent access to space.

CNES stands alongside ANYWAVES since the very beginning, especially regarding a technology transfer for ANYWAVES S-Band TT&C and X-Band payload telemetry antennas (CNESadvance label).
In December 2019, in the frame of its JANUS space program, CNES allowed ANYWAVES to secure the first heritage of its S-band TT&C and X-Band Payload Telemetry antennas with three of them equipping EYESAT, a 10kg and 3U nanosat.

European Space Agency

European Space Agency

The European Space Agency is Europe’s gateway to space. Its mission is to shape the development of Europe’s space capability and ensure that investment in space continues to deliver benefits to the citizens of Europe and the world.

The Agency played a key role in ANYWAVES’ inception thanks to two incubation periods and by giving the company its first major contract with the ESA Innovation Triangle Initiative project in 2018.

Hawaii Space Flight Laboratory

Hawaii Space Flight Laboratory

The Hawaii Space Flight Laboratory (HSFL)  enables the University of Hawaii to design, build, launch and operate microsatellites in the 1-150 kg range that can be configured for a variety of science and educational tasks.

Currently, the Hawaii Space Flight Laboratory is using two types of our COTS antennas, namely the X-Band Payload Telemetry and the S-Band TT&C ones

Hemeria

Hemeria

Player in the space industry, Hemeria designs and manufactures first-class space products that meet the needs of corporate and scientific customers in commercial, defence and safety applications. HEMERIA develops high-performance nanosatellites giving nontechnical professionals a fast, competitive and efficient access to space.

ANYWAVES collaborated with Hemeria in 2019 in the frame of the ANGELS program. Today in orbit, this 12U nanosat embodies two S-Band TT&C antennas.

Loft Orbital

Loft Orbital

Loft Orbital deploys and operates space infrastructure as a service, providing rapid, reliable, and simplified access to orbit for customer payloads. The company has developed the Payload Hub, a hardware and software interface which enables Loft Orbital to fly dedicated missions or multiple customer payloads simultaneously on a standard satellite bus design.

Loft Orbital has three missions planned for 2021, and quarterly missions in 2022.

Among its 2021 missions, Loft Orbital carries our S-band TT&C antenna onboard its microsatellite.

Maxar Technologies

Maxar Technologies

Maxar Technologies is a provider of comprehensive space solutions and secure, precise, geospatial intelligence. They deliver disruptive value to government and commercial customers to help them monitor, understand and navigate our changing planet; deliver global broadband communications; and explore and advance the use of space.

Maxar has committed to using our GNSS All-Bands Antenna in parallel with our Test Cap. In addition to these two products, they will be using our S-Band TT&C Antenna.

OHB Sweden

OHB Sweden

OHB Sweden is a Swedish provider of space systems and develops, builds, tests and operates satellites for different kinds of space missions within communications, earth observation, space research and exploration.

As "Artic Weather Satellite" prime contractor, OHB Sweden will use our antennas for its satellite telemetry, telecommand, geolocation and also for the data downlink.
