The ongoing developments of satellite antenna technology, mainly of multiple-feed-per-beam (MFB) concepts, combined with advanced compound semiconductor and packaging technologies that provide the building blocks for a new generation of K-band satellites, are reported. This paper proposes a next-generation MFB application scenario using the advantages of both new antenna and solid-state power amplifier concepts.
