Military COTM Antennas

Micro-Ant's COTM antennas cover the full microwave spectrum from UHF through Ka-band (750 MHz to 40 GHz), including L, S, C, X, and Ku-bands. This broad coverage supports tactical communications, electronic warfare, and SATCOM links across GEO, MEO, and LEO satellite constellations for defense and intelligence missions.

Yes, Micro-Ant designs its Communications-on-the-Move antennas to meet MIL-STD-810 environmental and mechanical requirements, ensuring they withstand rugged terrain, extreme temperatures, constant vibration, and physical obstructions encountered in tactical field deployments and combat environments.

Micro-Ant's COTM antennas are engineered for vehicle-mounted, airborne (helicopter, UAV, and fuselage), maritime, man-pack, body-worn, and ground-based fixed applications. Each design is customized to meet the size, weight, aperture, and environmental constraints specific to the mounting platform and mission profile.

Micro-Ant provides certification-ready test reports and compliance for major satellite operators including Iridium Certus, Intelsat, Eutelsat, Inmarsat Global Express, SES O3B, Thuraya, and Hughes, along with ARSTRAT military certifications and INMARSAT CAT-01/CAT-04 approvals for select flat panel products.

Yes, Micro-Ant specializes in bespoke antenna design, tailoring frequency bands, gain patterns, aperture size, and environmental hardening to mission-critical specifications. Their engineering team has delivered over 1,000 custom antenna products for defense, aviation, maritime, and land-based COTM applications.

Parabolic COTM antennas use mechanically steered reflector dishes offering high gain and efficiency, ideal for fixed-beam tracking. Phased array (ESA) antennas use electronic beam switching for near-instantaneous, make-before-break tracking across moving platforms, better suited for fast-maneuvering vehicles, aircraft, or vessels requiring continuous connectivity.
