Lose the Tube. Gain Mission-Ready Ka-Band Power for Defense Systems About Electronic warfare, advanced radar, and SATCOM systems require various extents of wideband Ka-band power with instant-on availability, continuous-wave (or quasi-continuous-wave) performance and long-term reliability. While TWTAs deliver output power, they introduce maintenance burden, warm-up delay and lifecycle risk. Modern spatially combined GaN SSPAs now...
