RFMI Goes Into Orbit
June 14, 2006
RF Monolithics is one of the companies we here at satellite Standard group follow.
We follow this company because they are a supplier of SAW filters to satellite radio. What makes RFM appealing to someone considering an investment in the satellite radio sector is that RFM also is in many other facets of business. simply stated, RF Monolithics is participating in the growth of satellite radio, while at the same time developing other business interests that are unrelated to sirius or XM.
Satellite Standard Group readers can learn more about the various sectors that RF Monolithics is in by reading our previous article
HERERF Monolithics is now involved in some very interesting and compelling activities. RFM components are widely used in the SPHERES program, and help keep the sheres stable.
The MIT Space Systems Laboratory developed the SPHERES (Synchronized Position Hold Engage and Reorient Experimental Satellites) laboratory environment to provide DARPA, NASA, and other researchers with a long term, replenishable, and upgradable testbed for the validation of high risk metrology, control, and autonomy technologies for use in formation flight and autnomous docking, rendezvous and reconfiguration algorithms. These technologies are critical to the operation of distributed satellite and docking missions such as Terrestrial Planet Finder and Orbital Express. You can read more about the programm and wath some facinating videos
HEREEarly success of the program points to continued development of technology, and RFM will no doubt participate in that process. This program adds yet another dimmension to the business that RFM is involved, and is another reason why people that follow this sector should follow the activities of RF Monolithics closely.
