SAN DIMAS, Calif., March 23, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Wavestream Corporation (www.wavestreamcorp.com), a provider of innovative power amplifier solutions for today's complex communications and sensing systems, today announced it has updated its PowerStream(tm) amplifier product line -- powered by its propriety Spatial Power Advantage(tm) -- to include 25-watt and 40-watt Ku-band power amplifier modules.
"Wavestream continues to innovate with our spatial power technology to provide compact, efficient, low-cost power amplifier solutions for challenging communications and sensing problems," said Jim Rosenberg, Ph.D, president and founder of Wavestream Corporation. "Our updated PowerStream product line provides satellite system integrators with cost-effective and flexible options to achieve their power amplifier needs."
Wavestream's PowerStream Deck Amplifier Module product line uses spatial power combining in Deck Amplifiers to enable 25 watts or 40 watts on the feed for mobile and transportable satellite solutions. The compact deck amplifier modules lower the DC draw, reduce thermal load and use fewer chips to generate high output power in a rugged, affordable package that is ideal for amplifier and satellite integrators in the commercial and defense industries. These amplifier modules can also be ordered with power supply and driver options.
Wavestream's products eliminate much of the loss seen in conventional solid-state power amplifiers to provide very high efficiency for Ka- and Ku-band communications. The company plans to expand its technology to reach beyond Ka- and Ku- band frequencies, enabling additional advancements in communications and sensing systems. Wavestream provides solutions for a wide range of commercial and military applications, including satellite links, radar and terrestrial communications. Wavestream's solid-state amplifiers use spatial power combining to provide high output power at higher efficiencies in more compact form factors at lower cost than traditional solid-state technology.
