Harris Corporation is a market leader in the design and production of commercial deployable (unfurlable) antenna reflectors that enable communication services from space. Harris supplies prime spacecraft contractors with a variety of large aperture reflectors (5m to 22m+) with design heritage of more than 30 years. Large aperture reflectors project high RF power to the ground resulting in increased capability for Fixed Satellite Services (FSS), Broadcast Satellite Services (BSS), Satellite Radio, Mobile Satellite Services (MSS), and Direct Mobile Broadcast (DMB). Harris has over 30 reflector systems deployed on-orbit using designs that offer unique advantages including: - Numerous packaging and deployment scenarios that minimize impact to existing spacecraft design;
Predictable deployments that have no dynamic impact to the spacecraft; Mesh surface accuracy that meets requirements beyond Ka-band; Proven mesh stowage and surface management systems for high reliability; PIM-free performance that enables single aperture antennas for transmitting and receiving.
Harris provides its commercial reflector customers with on-time delivery, best value, predictable performance, and continued support after delivery to assure reliable on-orbit success.
