About

X-band and Ka-Band Antenna Systems at Kojarena

Our Mission is to use technology to provide better approaches and techniques for the Operations and Management of Communications Networks and the Electromagnetic Spectrum.

We succeed when we make it easier for our customers to use their Communications Networks and Electromagnetic Spectrum resources and so better deliver capability to their customers.

Why does this matter?

Network Operations is complex because our customers have multiple, disparate and disconnected systems they need to use to operate their networks. Typically this includes massive geographic distribution of network elements even including into Space. The systems they have are from multiple vendors and each requires their own configuration and monitoring.

This leads to inefficiency. Manual configuration of these multiple systems is time consuming and prone to error. Response to faults is slow, and operators cannot get insight into the root causes of faults. Further, visibility of resource usage is poor, leading to wastage.

All this leads to Network Operations being expensive. Customers need more operators, with more, ongoing training on multiple systems. Configuration errors lead to network downtime (i.e. lost revenue) and SLA penalties. And underutilised resources mean missed sales and lower ROI.

The solution...

We offer a compelling value proposition to our customers who often find themselves beset by multiple, often legacy, often proprietary, systems used to operate their infrastructure (e.g. TV transmission sites, satellite ground stations, spacecraft). Using our technology, we integrate these disparate systems into a single system providing a ‘single pane of glass’ experience for our customer’s operations.

This alone sees our customers immediately realise savings through increased efficiency of their operators (e.g. less training, fewer mistakes, higher duty cycle) however we also deploy domain-specific functionality amplifying the effect of our systems and saving our customers further (e.g. automatic failover of transmission on failure savings on SLA penalties).

We find our customers engaging in long-term arrangements where they can reinvest both in support contracts but also further enhancements to achieve even better capability, or to meet emerging requirements.

Developed in Australia, and leveraging the best of our local and international partners, our software and hardware solutions are deployed spanning Satellite Communications (SATCOM), Space Domain Awareness (SDA), Television and Radio Broadcast, Secure Communications, and Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Electronic Warfare (ISREW).

We meet our customer needs by specialising in five areas backed by expertise in Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Digital Signal Processing and Electronics Design.
