Our Experience
With years of combined experience in the design, manufacturing and testing of antennas, JEM's engineering team is able to develop working solutions for its customers. JEM's engineering team's depth of experience continues to expand by working with high profile customers including the U.S. Navy, NASA and Applied Signal Technology. See below for a snapshot of some of JEM's success stories and contract work:

Type of Customer: Government and Commercial
Type of Antenna: Dual polarized patch antenna
Frequency: 18.5–19.5 GHz
Application: Designed for a communications data link application (medium range backhaul)
Details: The antenna incorporates two arrays with orthogonal polarizations for transmitting and receiving. It operates at 18.5–18.7 GHz and 19.5–19.7 GHz; the two 64-element sub-arrays each achieve 24 dBi gain. Antenna is supplied with a radome and adjustable mount for wall or tower mounting.

Type of Customer: Government and Commercial
Type of Antenna: Bicone Antenna
Frequency: 27 GHz
Application: Designed to function as the base station transmit antenna for a 27 GHz point-to-multipoint communication system
Details: The antenna features an omni-directional 10 dBi gain over the 26.5–27.5 GHz band with a 10 W RF power handling capability. Antenna is supplied with a radome and mount for outdoor installation.

Type of Customer: Government and Commercial
Type of Antenna: Symmetric Genetic Antenna
Frequency: 2–18 GHz
Application: Designed for an unattended ground sensor for radar detection
Details: The antenna has a symmetric vertically-polarized monopole-like pattern across the frequency range. The antenna is small (<1.5" tall), and since the radiator is made from wire, it is efficient, lightweight and cost effective. Antenna is supplied with a radome and groundplane.

Customer: Applied Signal
Type: Sub-Contractor
Description: Providing technical support for a state-of-the-art SIGINT system in the following areas: (a) program and configuration management; (b) documentation; (c) engineering; (d) development; (e) prototyping; (f) manufacturing; and (g) testing of flight-qualified antennas. Utilizing antenna design and modeling tools to accomplish this work, JEM is also exercising its rapid prototyping capabilities and antenna testing facilities.
 
Customer: Army
Type: Prime Contractor
Description: Provides the Army with continued research into the feasibility of low-cost, survivable ballistic antenna radomes. JEM is specifically researching materials, designs and fabrication processes needed to develop antenna covers referred to as radomes (a domelike shell transparent to RF radiation used to house a radar antenna) that can survive small-arms fire and shrapnel impact. Utilizing computational electromagnetic modeling tools as well as composite material and mechanical design tools for this effort.
 
Customer: Large Aerospace Prime
Type: Sub-Contractor
Description: Providing Large Aerospace Prime with modeling, development, prototyping and testing of a specialized broadband sensor antenna. This unique antenna is required to provide constant omni-directional gain--independent of polarization--from 50 MHz to 2.5 GHz.
 
Customer: NASA
Type: Prime Contractor
Description: Provided NASA with research into the feasibility of low-cost, high-gain, electronically steerable array antennas. JEM specifically researched the application of a novel, patented technology for electronic beam steering, which was invented by JEM's chief engineer.
 
Customer: NAVAIR
Type: Prime Contractor
Description: Provided NAVAIR with research into the feasibility of light-weight, broadband communications, navigation and identification antennas for tactical Naval aircraft. Specifically researched the application of patented artificial dielectric material technology--invented by JEM's chief engineer--to antenna size and weight reduction.
 
Customer: Naval Surface Warfare Center–Dahlgren Division
Type: Prime Contractor
Description: Provided the Naval Surface Warfare Center with research into the feasibility of very thin antennas and their integration onto aircraft and other vehicles (with maximum isolation between antennas and minimum vehicle coupling). Specifically researched the application of photonic bandgap, high-impedance surface technology.
 
Customer: Major NASA Contractor
Type: Sub-Contractor
Description: Providing technical support in design engineering and modeling of space-flight antennas. JEM is utilizing antenna design and modeling tools to accomplish this work, particularly with JEM's unique capabilities in genetic algorithm optimization of antennas.
 
Customer: Responsive Technology Solutions Prime
Type: Sub-Contractor
Description: Providing technical support for classified systems in the following areas: (a) program and configuration management; (b) documentation; (c) engineering; (d) development; (e) prototyping; (f) manufacturing; and (g) testing of antennas. JEM is utilizing antenna design and modeling tools for this effort along with JEM's rapid prototyping capabilities and antenna testing facilities.
