New waveforms
Shaping the future of resilient and intelligent SATCOM
Satellite communications are a critical enabler of global connectivity, especially where terrestrial infrastructure is limited or unavailable
At MBI, we specialize in innovative SATCOM technologies designed to operate reliably across LEO, MEO, and GEO constellations—serving a wide range of markets from maritime and aeronautical to IoT and strategic defense applications.
Our air-interface solutions are based on software-defined radio (SDR) architectures, enabling rapid adaptation, full software reconfigurability, and seamless integration with existing platforms. These include fully software-based demodulators, signal intelligence (SIGINT) tools, and interference mitigation techniques capable of operating in congested and contested RF environments.
Communications and high spectral efficiency
Spread spectrum communications
Software-defined radio
Resistance to noise and interference
MBI is at the forefront of Enhanced Spread Spectrum Aloha (E-SSA) innovation. Our demodulators implement advanced techniques such as Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) and Spreading Factor optimization, allowing for the recovery of overlapped bursts with exceptional efficiency. This approach dramatically improves the throughput and robustness of random access satellite systems especially in high-load or interference-prone scenarios.
In addition, our proprietary Ghost-Wave technology enables signal detection and demodulation below the noise floor, opening the door to ultra-low-power applications and covert communications, even under extreme SNR conditions.
Through continuous research, experimentation, and system-level integration, MBI is shaping the future of resilient and intelligent SATCOM.
The Starfish platform
SSEEM SYSTEM
he SSEEM (Spread SpEctrum Esva Measurement) System allows Satellite Operators to measure the co- and crosspolar radiation pattern of the transmit/receive antennas of ground stations during Earth Station Verification and Assistance (ESVA) tests. It is a compact and innovative product based on a spread spectrum approach.
Antenna Mapping System (AMS)
The launch of a satellite into orbit is an extremely delicate phase of a high investment project. It is possible that the antenna becomes damaged or positions itself incorrectly.The Antenna Mapping System (AMS) is a highly innovative approach, which employs a software system to check if the satellite antennas have been damaged during the launch. And that is not all! AMS makes use of highly innovative signal processing algorithms in order to pre-compensate possible antenna malfunctions and to ensure that the nominal features of satellite links are preserved.
Enhanced Spread-Spectrum Aloha (ESSA)
The ESSA communication protocol allows highly efficient communication from an energy and spectral point of view. Several leading telecom operators and research centers contributed to its creation. It uses innovative techniques to implement an affordable two-way satellite link which operates with a large number of terminals and high-throughput, and is robust in terms of noise and interference as well as having low energy consumption. ESSA brings greater economies of scale, and paves the way to a whole range of applications, from machine-to-machine (M2M) to non-linear TV, from vehicular and safety applications to low-cost internet: thus showing it is possible to innovate in a sustainable way.
Software-Defined Radio (SDR) framework
Traditional technology for telecom systems is based on signal processing techniques using hardware (HW) systems. Instead MBI has chosen an innovative approach by combining general purpose hardware with a software component, thus ensuring greater reconfigurability, increased flexibility to cope with new requirements, as well as considerably lower costs in pro typing, production and operational phases.
