▪️Satellite ground station

Our own Earth Station used to operate with satellites in various orbits (GEO, MEO, LEO).

IN DEVELOPMENT

Overview

  • Center for satellite operation and monitoring

  • Communication with geostationary (GEO), low (LEO) and medium (MEO) Earth orbit satellites

  • First-class earth station equipment for outstanding reliability

  • The first project of this scale in Czech Republic (Unique geographical location, a mild climate)

  • Available frequency spectrum - VHF, UHF, L-, S-, C-, X-, Ku-, Ka-band up to EHF (40+ GHz)

  • Earth station non-stop operated by experts

  • High level of facility security measures

Location

Location on a map of the Czech Republic
  • Built on nearly 40 000 m2 of land

  • Horizon visibility <10 degrees in elevation

  • Backbone fibre connection up to n x 10 Gbps Power transformer 22/0.4 kV 630 kVA

  • Negligible risk in terms of floods, earthquakes or other natural disasters

  • Good spectrum clarity
