SPECIAL ROUNDTABLE SESSION

 

No formal presentations will be made.

 

This special event is designed to bring together Ka Band VSAT Terminal experts along with MMIC device, materials and packaging experts to discuss ways and means of reducing the costs of Ka Band VSAT Terminals.

 

  • Are there any new Ka Band MMIC Device Technologies coming along at these power levels, which can lower system costs?
     

  • Are there any new Ka Band Materials or Packaging Technologies coming along which can lower system costs - for example, by using advanced integration or other means?

 

This Roundtable format is very informal - allowing for maximum Q & A interaction.
