Tactical Antennas Portable Backpack and Wearable

Weight is minimized for field portability. For example, the Ka Flat Panel antenna weighs less than 8 lbs and measures just 12x17 inches at under 1 inch thick. This carry-on-size, no-assembly design makes it suitable for personnel carrying gear over long distances or in stealth operations.

Yes, tactical portable antennas are MIL-STD-810 compliant, meaning they are tested to withstand rugged terrain, extreme temperatures, constant vibration, and physical obstructions. This ensures reliable performance during search-and-rescue missions, combat deployments, and other demanding field environments.

Yes, several designs support Communications-on-the-Move (COTM) and switched-beam electronically steered array technology with make-before-break switching, maintaining a continuous link while tracking satellites even when the antenna platform is in motion, whether worn by personnel or mounted on a vehicle.

Products are manufactured under AS9100:2016 and ISO 9001:2015 certified processes and are tested to meet ARSTRAT certification standards. Select flat panel models also hold INMARSAT CAT-01 and CAT-04 certifications, verifying compliance across both commercial and military satellite bands.

Yes, Micro-Ant specializes in bespoke antenna design, tailoring frequency bands, radiation patterns, weight, and environmental durability to mission-specific specifications. With over 1,000 custom products delivered, the engineering team collaborates directly with defense, intelligence, and government customers throughout development.

Portable and man-pack antennas are certified or compatible with major satellite operators including Iridium Certus, Intelsat, Eutelsat, Inmarsat Global Express, SES O3B, Thuraya, and Hughes, enabling reliable connectivity across LEO, MEO, and GEO satellite constellations for field-deployed personnel.
