South Korea improves high-speed aerial telecommunications network performance

Reconnaissance drones

South Korea’s Agency for Defense Development (ADD) has developed multi-beam active phased array antenna technology to improve the performance of high-speed aerial telecommunications networks,

The technology ensures simultaneous communication with four unmanned aircraft with a single antenna.

The technology’s active phased array arrangement, which arranges multiple tile-type multi-beam antennas in a cylinder shape, also enables 360-degree omnidirectional telecommunications.

The multi-beam antenna can overcome such shortcomings of existing aerial telecommunications networks that deliver data via satellites and are vulnerable to jamming or bad weather conditions.

The ADD noted that the multi-beam antenna could also be applied in the private sector for the establishment of emergency telecommunications networks in radio shadow areas and 6G base station telecommunications.
