Demand Growth – Commercial Mobile Broadband

Supply Growth: Mobility-bandwidth capacity

• The Satellite industry is entering a phase of explosive growth in high-throughput SATCOM wireless communications:

• The world's leading providers of satellite services, Intelsat and Inmarsat, are early movers and have already launched High Throughput Satellites (HTS)

• SES/O3B, Eutelsat and other GEO satellite players are scheduled to increase capacity to meet the market demand

• Announced NGSO and Low-Earth Orbit Satellite (LEO) service companies including SpaceX, LeoSat, Telesat and OneWeb are also expected to participate in this market growth

Over $15B is being invested in high-through capacity over next 5 years

Access Technology is the Enabler

Evolution from Heavy Mechanized VSATs to lighter, streamlined ESAs

Next gen modified for Aero, but limited use, performance, applicability

Current gen improved for Aero, but still too bulky, heavy

ESAs are the Future of

Commercial Broadband

Initial Mobile Broadband Terminals large, heavy & bulky – targeted Maritime

Access Technology is the Key (Features and Benefits – The Phasor ESA)

Thin• Very Low Profile, (aerodynamic, inconspicuous)

• Superior Form-Factor, (smaller footprint, light-weight)

Reliable• Accurate, (faster scan, better tracking, fewer network drops)

• Robust, (solid-sate/no-moving parts, gradual degradation vs. total system failure)

Broadband• Delivers true Broadband Service, (supports networks > 100Mbs)

• Very High Gain (efficient, powerful)

Modular• Adaptable, (expandable to support wide requirements, lowering OpEx)

• Better Logistics-tail (easier, less costly & less timely to repair )

Versatile• Broad functionality, (multi-beam, flat or conformal, distributed or contiguous arrays, GEO or NGSO

• Dynamic control, (software-defined beam forming & tapering, Interference mitigation)

Breakthrough technology + industry standard processes

Single Panel / Core Module assembly

Each board supports up to ~500 antenna patch elements w/proprietary ASICs on the Top-Board

Control of individual ASICs performed locally

Similar design for Receive and Transmit

Platform Testing

The mobile broadband communications market is building momentum for

both Commercial Mobile Broadband and Government COTM markets

Passenger & crew requirements for ubiquitous broadband connectivity and

evolving aggregated Telematics needs, are driving demand geometrically

Industry is providing enormous new supply, specifically for these mobile

broadband markets. New FSS, HTS and LEO/MEO SATCOM systems will empower

these new global services

The current state of the art for ACCESS technology is woefully insufficient,

and inhibits adoption and growth of the market.

Electronically Steerable Antennas (ESAs) are the way forward

Industry & Investors are funding the development Phasor’s technology for

specific high-value, early-adopter user-markets

Phasor is uniquely well positioned to deliver differentiated technology to enterprise-grade, mobile broadband markets
