Lyntris Completes CDR for KSAT Hyperion Satellite Program

Tri-band RF system advances for KSAT's next-generation HYPER relay network

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Lyntris Inc. (NYSE: LYNX), a defense technology company delivering sense-to-act connectivity solutions for the modern connected battlespace has completed Critical Design Review (CDR) for the tri-band antenna system in development for Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT)'s two-satellite Hyperion mission, marking a key milestone as the program advances toward hardware integration, qualification, and flight.

Hyperion is the pathfinder for HYPER, KSAT's next-generation hybrid RF and optical relay network designed to extend global connectivity into orbit. The architecture will enable spacecraft to move mission data through relay satellites when direct ground-station access is unavailable, reducing latency and increasing access to time-sensitive information.

Delivering tri-band performance in a single antenna system is a demanding engineering problem. Each frequency band has to be tightly controlled — filtering out unwanted signals, isolating the bands from each other, and minimizing signal loss. But optimizing for one band can easily degrade performance in another. Meeting those requirements for all three simultaneously, inside a compact, space-qualified envelope, leaves little room for error.

That difficulty compounds when the design moves from RF engineering into flight hardware, and the completed system then has to be validated in test facilities capable of characterizing performance across all three bands at once, a capability few organizations maintain in-house.

Completion of CDR as planned demonstrates the technical maturity of the design and reflects the close engineering partnership between Lyntris and KSAT as both teams move toward flight hardware.

Lyntris brings RF engineering, manufacturing, system integration, and multi-band testing together under one roof. That combination — along with proprietary design and process IP — is what allows a design as demanding as the tri-band antenna to move from requirements to flight hardware.

"Hyperion is an important step toward a more connected and resilient space architecture," said Madison Dye, Lyntris' Vice President of C5ISR. "We're proud to partner with KSAT and provide the advanced RF technology needed to make that architecture work. Completing CDR on schedule demonstrates our ability to move complex antenna systems from requirements to flight-ready hardware with speed and discipline."
