Enhancing phased array antenna performance by optimizing beamforming - with Texas Instruments

Episode 40 of the Space Industry podcast is a discussion with Michael Seidl, Systems Engineer with a focus on space applications, and Adrian Helwig, Analog Field Application Engineer, of satsearch member Texas Instruments (TI).

TI is a global electronics manufacturer and innovation company with a strong interest in space. In this podcast Michael and Adrian delve into how to enhance the performance of phased array antennas in satellite communications (satcom) applications by optimizing beamforming using gigahertz-clocking tree solutions. We cover:

• The typical challenges that designers face in the development of phased array antennas
• How clocking solutions can achieve higher performance while maintaining tight synchronization across all channels
• Use of the JESD204 standard for high-speed data-capture designs using FPGA
• How gigahertz-clocking tree solutions in phased array antennas in space applications may evolve in years to come
