The MMA-OTM Comm Link system is a new addition to TECOM’s ground control/ground data terminal products. It features a three-aperture design providing Quad-Band Command/Control (C2) and Sensor Data bandwidth in a single unit. The system allows user-selectable aperture switching on-the-fly, reducing downtime by eliminating physical band reconfiguration.
The system is ruggedized for harsh environments and high-dynamic mobile platforms, with upgraded servos and motors for higher torque and velocity. It integrates the antenna controller, power supply, LNA’s, HPA’s, and necessary filters and switches into a single LRU. An Inertial Navigation Unit (INU) aids in platform stabilization and tracking.
The system is designed for a variety of manned and unmanned platforms, offering a low SWaP data-link for high data rate Line-Of-Site communication.

smiths microwave INNOVATIVE ANTENNA SOLUTIONS MMA-OTM MOBILE MULTI-BAND ANTENNA FOR ON-THE-MOVE APPLIC The bi-directional MMA-OTM Comm Link system is a new addition to TECOM's field-proven line of ground control/ ground data terminal products. MMA-OTM utilizes a three aperture design providing Quad-Band Command/Control (C2) and Sensor Data bandwidth in a single unit. The system features upgraded high-efficiency apertures providing medium- to long-range link capability. The desired aperture is user selectable On-The-Fly through a flexible software interface, providing L/S-, or C-, or Ku-band capability within 3 seconds. This significantly reduces system downtime by eliminating the need for physical band reconfiguration inside the radome by maintenance or support personnel. APPLICATIONS/PLATFORMS: • Ground based UAV Contol and Data-link • Shipboard and On-The-Move vehicle operations • Medium- to long-range Directional Antenna applications STANDARD FEATURES: • Small (14” H x 12” Dia.), light weight form factor • Quad-Band (L,S,C, & Ku) coverage • Bi-directional capability in all bands • Built-in ACU, power supply, and servo's • High performance, low-EMI control system • Designed for Churchville B dynamics • Included INU for platform stabilization, fast target acquisition, and autonomous open loop tracking • Flexible Command and Status interface • Closed-loop tracking capability (no GPS required) SYSTEM OPTIONS: • Single aperture, multi-band version • Lower profile and weight airborne versions • Lower SWaP receive-only versions The system features a ruggedized antenna positioner assembly suitable for the harsh tactical environment, and additional rigors imposed when mounted on a high-dynamic mobile platform. This includes upgraded servos and motors supplying higher torque and velocity, while producing low EMI. The antenna controller, power supply, LNA's, HPA's, and the neccesary filters and switches are all integrated into a single LRU. The system also comes with an Inertial Navigation Unit (INU) which facilitates plaform stabilization, fast target acquisition, and open-loop tracking. The combination of small size, rapid deployment, high gain, large instantaneous bandwidth, and dynamic capability directly benefit the tactical user by providing a low SWaP data-link for Line-Of-Site communication at high data rates. Designed to work with a wide variety of manned and unmanned platforms including: Grey Eagle, Shadow, Hunter, Predator, Pioneer, Raven, Puma, Watchkeeper, and Firescout Unmanned Air Systems. 375 Conejo Ridge Avenue, Thousand Oaks, CA 91361-4928 | Phone (805) 267-0100 | Fax (805) 267-0181 | www.tecom-ind.
