Phased array antennas (PAA) and advanced beamforming techniques are key enablers for high-speed, reliable, and scalable connectivity. They provide precise beam steering, interference mitigation, and seamless coverage across multi-orbit satellite systems (HAPS, GEO, MEO, and LEO) as well as future 6G networks. This session highlights recent advances in electronic steering arrays (ESA) for multi-band, multi-orbit SATCOM and NTN, addressing requirements of real-time beam tracking, Low-SWaP design, and hybrid network resilience.

Time: 14:15–15:30
In this talk, an intuitive approach to assessing advantages of beamforming in 5G/6G wireless communication is proposed as a novel try and practical demonstration of the importance of alignment between the transmitter's and receiver's beams working in millimeter-wave frequency bands. The effects of the misalignment and alignment between beams need to be checked for, which was conducted with a horn antenna and the beamforming/beam-steering metamaterial antennas for RF-to-RF wireless connectivity between the horn and the antennas of interest including RIS reflectarrays, concerning the changing angle of the beam from the aforementioned antenna, was tested, showing over a substantial enhancement in received power. This direct electromagnetic link test was accompanied by examining 64-QAM constellations for beam-angle change. This verification is supported by the use of TMYTEK BBox.
