Indra’s innovative solutions

SATELLITECONTROLSYSTEMS

Products/systems

Satellite control and communications arecontinuously evolving and enlarging theircapacities. Indra is specially concerned withcustomer requirements, facing the challengeof developing new products or improvingexisting ones, according to thecustomer/system requirements.

Some references are:

• TMS-6 at Redu

• ARTEMIS PTS at Fuchino

• ARTEMIS RRT and TMS-1 at Redu

• HELIOS transportable station

We are committed specially to improve newfields of communication technology as newantenna control systems and the use of Kaband frequencies.
