Oxford Space Systems completed a £3 million equity investment round.
The terminal technology developed by Viasat UK and Oxford Space Systems could benefit other users operating in austere environments, including disaster recovery and aid workers.
Oxford Space Systems is a 10-year-old venture working with the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory of the U.K. Ministry of Defence to create smaller C-band terminals for lower-bandwidth applications.
Viasat’s U.K. subsidiary is partnering with Oxford Space Systems to develop a high-speed communications terminal that is 50% lighter to improve the mobility of dismounted soldiers.
The collaborative work will build on Oxford Space Systems’ and the UK Defence Science and Technology Laboratory’s research on C-band deployable antennas while focusing the new work on developing a smaller and higher-performance Ka-band antenna.
The research and development collaboration will build Oxford Space Systems’ relationship with Viasat in the UK and expand how OSS brings its innovations in space antennas to support ground solutions.
Viasat UK and Oxford Space Systems will research the system requirements and design needed to deliver Ka-band high-speed satellite communications while reducing the physical transport burden on warfighters or other users compared to current military and commercial terminals.
