MDA Space Introduces Aurora, its New Software-Defined Satellite Product Line

▤ Summary

The Aurora product line will adopt several new features designed to improve flexibility and functionality for constellation performance. Key features of the Aurora product line will include a modular of software-defined satellites with digital payload technologies tailored for multiple orbits and frequencies. New features come as a product of MDA’s acquisition of the digital payload division of SatixFy Communications, which closed in October 2023. Aurora will adopt beamforming technology and electronically-steered direct radiating arrays with radio frequency (RF) conversion capabilities. “We are proud to introduce Aurora, our transformational software-defined satellite product line,” said Mike Greenley, CEO of MDA Space.
