Fact sheet | Resilient multi-satellite MIMO communications

Satellite Communication (SATCOM) plays a vital role in delivering global communications access to both military and civil users.

SATCOM can be subject to interference and satellites themselves are becoming increasingly vulnerable to a range of threats. Multi-Satellite Multiple Input Multiple Output (MS-MIMO) is a novel
concept in SATCOM that leverages advanced signal processing techniques, multi-beam antenna array technology and complexity management.

DST is seeking to collaborate with satellite operators and associated research agencies, with an interest in increasing their per-satellite communications capacity and resilience, to jointly demonstrate this new approach.
