Mission-critical software for satellite communications.
Edge Pulsar designs and hardens orbital and ground software: 3GPP Rel-17 NTN protocol stacks, Doppler compensation, and teleport gateways.
The rapid expansion of LEO mega-constellations is turning orbital space into a dynamic telecommunications network. Satellite payloads and ground teleports must handle massive Doppler shifts, short visibility contact windows, and 3GPP NTN protocol adaptations under strict thermal and radiation limits (SWaP-C).
Typical pain points
LEO orbital dynamics induce severe Doppler frequency shifts and variable propagation delays requiring real-time protocol compensation.
Integrating 3GPP Rel-17 NTN stacks onto space-grade SoCs and SDR frontends requires rigorous hardware/software co-design.
Ground segment gateways (teleports) must switch high-throughput data streams seamlessly across satellite passes with zero packet drop.
In-orbit software lifecycle requires fail-safe, radiation-tolerant dual-bank bootloaders resilient to single-event upsets.
