Astro Wave Technologies, Inc.


Terahertz Solutions for Small Satellite Missions and Space Applications

We specialize in providing terahertz-band sensor subsystems for small satellites, delivering advanced solutions to mission integrators in academia and industry. Our subsystems feature lightweight, space-grade composite materials with exceptionally low thermal distortion, used in both antenna and structural components. Thanks to our proprietary composite molding technology, we offer scalability for mass production without compromising precision or performance.

Drawing on extensive experience from terahertz antenna optical system design at JAXA, we also offer high-level electromagnetic measurement services. These include radiation pattern measurements of terahertz antennas and absolute reflectance testing of mirror materials in the terahertz frequency range. In addition, we manufacture and sell custom measurement systems to meet specific research or industrial needs.

Our R&D efforts further extend to:

Antenna subsystems for HAPS-based feeder link communication systems

Water vapor radiometers covering terahertz channels

Frequency-selective terahertz films and other optical components for spacecraft

We are committed to advancing terahertz technologies for next-generation space systems.

Summary of products and services

We offer the following services based on terahertz sensing technologies and expertise developed by JAXA:
1. Provision of terahertz-band sensor subsystems for small satellites and terahertz-band optical components
2. Engineering services, including support for and contracted execution of various terahertz-band electromagnetic measurements
3. Consulting services related to terahertz measurement and terahertz-band sensor subsystems for satellite applications
