Innovation and engineering partner in the UK for tactical communications development
Government projects often face the challenge of developing new solutions on extremely fast timescales, due to the nature of government structured organisations. Rapid response development is crucial, but finding a partner capable of delivering complex projects quickly and effectively can be difficult. Balancing the demand for innovation with effective risk management can be daunting.
For commercial organisations supplying equipment to government sectors, this challenge is even more pronounced. Often led by ex-military personnel, these teams understand exactly what’s needed in the field but require a partner who can interpret these needs, and turn them into real-world solutions, quickly.
Satellite communications projects require specialised expertise and a tailored approach. From system modelling and satellite constellation design to RF systems, antenna design, and high-performance digital processing, finding the right partner is critical in delivering effective, highly customised applications that meet stringent government requirements.
With a proven ability to deliver rapid, innovative solutions, TTP is the ideal partner to address these challenges. Our team combines deep technical expertise with a clear understanding of real-world needs. Whether you're developing one COTM terminal or building a completely new platform for critical comms in the field, TTP has the skills and resources to provide customised, high-impact solutions while effectively managing risk.
“GENSS represents the pinnacle of our development efforts, transforming complex communication needs into simple, effective solutions. My vision has been to craft the ultimate radio system — user-friendly, light, modular and supremely flexible to adapt to the evolving demands of military operations and technological advances. GENSS is proving to deliver exactly that. By leveraging TTP’s expertise, deeply embedded into a collaborative team alongside our tactical communications experts and seasoned military specialists, we have been able to deliver a product which offers a step-change in capability for end users within an extremely rapid time frame.”

Understanding the unique conditions presented by the harsh environment at sea, we partnered with TTP and SpaceCom to develop ELMA and deliver the reliable, resilient satellite communications capabilities that mariners need and expect from Viasat Government Services. Leveraging the exceptional capabilities of TTP to provide systems engineering along with SpaceCom’s proven capabilities in antenna development and integration of L-band systems, ELMA is the first of its kind L-band system, revolutionizing the capabilities of the Viasat ELERA network.

The RFFE project was well executed. TTP delivered a platform that met our ambitious targets, and the RFFE has quickly become a standard building block for our satcom terminals. This work initiated what has grown to be a very productive relationship between Viasat Government and TTP

How we can help
Communications system architecture design
We listen to your commercial needs and aspirations, then apply our know-how and commercial acumen to realise an optimum system design to meet your business needs.
Radio frequency, electronics and antenna design
RF engineering is a key skill in the design of communications systems, especially satellite communications. We have extensive communications development labs, tools and resources for communications systems development up to and including Ka band, as well as the ability to develop low frequency communications systems operating at a few Hz for down hole drilling applications.
Software and digital signal processing
Our core software capability includes the skills required for the development of communication systems at the deepest level, from the low-level waveform generation with error correction coding and spreading, driving the physical radio layer, to the higher layers of the network stack handling the payload data and networking control aspects.
Satellite payload
We have gained experience in the development of satellite payload, and the requirements of the payload to be able to withstand the orbital environment. This includes a communications module developed for SSTL and built into the Tyche satellite included RF intersatellite links between LEO and GEO.
5G NTN
TTP brings deep expertise in telecommunications and satellite communications to offer holistic solution development for Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN). Our capabilities span comprehensive system and service specification, ensuring flawless integration of satellite and terrestrial networks. We excel in developing, testing, and integrating core NTN technologies, delivering bespoke solutions that meet client requirements. Actively engaged in advancing the 3GPP NTN ecosystem, we contribute to shaping the standards and frameworks driving industry progress. This cohesive approach empowers organisations to innovate and maintain a competitive edge in the fast-evolving world of NTN connectivity.
