LOCUS LEOKu is a Ku-Band Bendpipe (Transparent) payload developed for LEO Satellites. The payload bandwidth is 50MHz and can be changed upon request and can support multiple user terminals. It can support up to 4 user terminals simultaneously and a min. 3 Mbps data rate for each user terminal. Payload can be manufactured with requested frequencies by tuning operating frequency range within Ku-Band. Thanks to the Beacon feature in Ku-Band, terminals and gateway antennas can perform satellite tracking.
