Ottawa, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 19, 2025) - C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., (TSXV: CMI) (OTCQB: CYSNF) a leading global provider of commercial grade mobile auto-deploying satellite antenna systems, announced today that it has been granted US patent No.:12,381,318 B2 for its invention of a Ka-band 2D Phased-Array Antenna in Package.
This is the 12th patent C-COM has been granted and is the result of its ongoing research and development of a new Electronically Steerable Ka-band Phased Array Antenna which is being developed in partnership with the University of Waterloo and with the assistance from the Ontario Centers for Excellence (OCE), the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).
This unique low-cost and efficient millimeter-wave phased array antenna in a package comprises an antenna array with an integrated passive beamformer network and at least one actuation mechanism. The passive beamformer network comprises a phase shifter with a transmission line having a slow-wave structure and a ceramic.
"This new technology looks very promising for the development of next-generation hybrid (passive/active) phased array antennas, which can be applied in large-scale phased array antenna systems," said Bilall Awada, Chief Technology Officer of C-COM.
"This patented invention provides further recognition of the quality of the innovation being carried out by C-COM's research team in partnership with the University of Waterloo," said Leslie Klein, President and CEO of C-COM Satellite Systems Inc. "We intend to incorporate this technology into future generations of affordable phased array antennas."
Klein noted that "the Company continues to innovate and modernize the mobile SATCOM business by offering the highest quality, cost-effective, and most reliable products, coupled with fast delivery and top-grade customer support."
