Abstract
A compact, on the move, SATCOM terminal for the military Ka-band has been successfully designed, implemented and tested. It allows two-way communications at Ka-band while the vehicle is in motion over rough terrains. A compact, complex, tracking system ensures that the antenna keeps pointing at the satellite while the vehicle is on the move.
