Phasor Solutions

Phasor Solutions was a US-based company founded in 2009 specializing in electronically-steered antenna (ESA) technology for satellite communications. The company focused on developing advanced antenna systems designed to improve connectivity in mobile satellite communications applications. While specific product details are limited in publicly available information, the core of Phasor’s business revolved around innovating antenna performance through electronic beam steering, a technology offering advantages over traditional mechanically steered antennas.

Phasor’s key capability lay in its proprietary ESA technology. Electronically steered antennas allow for rapid and precise beam control without physical movement, enabling faster connection establishment, improved signal reliability, and support for multiple simultaneous connections. This technology is particularly valuable for applications requiring robust and adaptable connectivity, such as mobile broadband, government and defense communications, and potentially future low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations.

In 2021, Phasor Solutions was acquired by Hanwha Systems, a South Korean defense and IT company. This acquisition signaled Hanwha’s intent to integrate Phasor’s ESA technology into its own portfolio of satellite communication solutions, specifically targeting mobile satcom applications and strengthening its position in the growing LEO satellite market.

While operating as an independent entity, Phasor Solutions positioned itself as an innovator in antenna technology. The acquisition by Hanwha Systems suggests the company’s technology was recognized as a valuable asset for enhancing mobile satellite communication capabilities and addressing the increasing demand for high-throughput, reliable connectivity from space.
