Kymeta was founded in August 2012 after spinning out from Intellectual Ventures and manufactures software-enabled, meta-materials based electronic beamforming antennas and terminals for satellite communications.

[3] Metamaterial Surface Antenna Technology (MSAT) is an innovative approach in satellite communications, developed by Kymeta Corporation.

Unlike traditional three-dimensional metamaterials, which rely on bulky structures and resonant phenomena, MSAT employs metasurfaces characterized by small periodic scatterers and surface thickness relative to the wavelength of interest.

Metamaterial Surface Antenna Technology (MSAT) by Kymeta offers a unique perspective on addressing challenges in satellite communications.

By incorporating high-birefringence liquid crystals, metasurfaces, and holographic beamforming, MSAT enables the development of electronically-scanned antennas that effectively address bandwidth, efficiency, and manufacturing tolerance issues.
