TerreStar Antenna Feasibility Study
This Statement of Work # (SOW) is made this day of November 2008 by and between Elektrobit Inc. (Elektrobit or EB) and TerreStar Networks Inc. (TerreStar or TSN) for the development of 15 EB reference phones with the integrated [***] antenna., and is governed by the Master Development and Licensing Agreement dated August, 2007 (Agreement)
1 | Introduction |
This SOW defines the scope of technical work to be performed by EB for the development of [***] EB reference phones, and integration of those phones with antennas developed by [***] Ltd. ([***]).
2 | Project Overview |
The main objective of this work is to successfully integrate this [***] antenna into EB and TSNs reference design handset and perform antenna testing. The secondary objective is to support [***] transmit and receive antenna design, development and validation work for TSNs S-band to provide satellite usage performance that meets or exceeds specified objectives. The final objective of this work is to document antenna and handset level guidance for design and implementation for industrialization into a wide variety of products.
3 | Period of Performance |
It is expected that this work will extend for a period of approximately [***] months. Officially starting on or around [***] and targeted to be completed on or around [***]. There will be break on work, while waiting for [***] phone.
4 | Schedule |
High Level Project Schedule:
This development and delivery schedule for this work will be reviewed and mutually agreed. A high level overview of the schedule is below.
