Thruster System Thruster System is a propulsion and control assembly that produces directed force for maneuvering or attitude adjustment. It provides thrust on demand by expelling mass or using another force-producing mechanism… Hardware Tracking Tracking is the process of determining and following the position or movement of an object, target, or signal source over time. It supports alignment and control. Operations Tracking Antenna Tracking Antenna is an antenna system that continuously or periodically adjusts its pointing to follow a moving target such as a satellite or aircraft, maintaining alignment with the target as… Hardware Traffic Concealment Traffic Concealment is the practice of hiding traffic patterns, volume, or content characteristics to reduce detectability or inference. Concept/Framework Transparent Payload Transparent Payload is a satellite payload that relays signals without significant onboard regeneration or processing. Hardware Transponder Transponder is a device or subsystem that receives a signal, processes it, and retransmits it on another channel or frequency. Hardware UAV Relay UAV Relay is a communications relay provided by an unmanned aerial vehicle to extend coverage or bridge blocked links. Hardware Upconverter Upconverter is a frequency conversion stage that shifts a signal from a lower frequency to a higher frequency for transmission or further processing by mixing the input signal with a… Hardware User Link User Link is the communication path between a user terminal or endpoint and the network or satellite service it connects to. It provides end-user access to the service. Protocol Vehicular Terminal Vehicular Terminal is a communications terminal mounted on or used within a vehicle to provide in-motion connectivity, enabling network access during movement or operation away from fixed infrastructure.
