About the Company
Wavestream is a semiconductor and systems company that develops a new generation of compact, high-efficiency, solid-state power amplifiers to bring greater mobility and capability to communications and sensing systems around the world. The revolutionary designs enable an order of magnitude improvement in size, weight, power, and performance. In most cases, the only alternative to Wavestream's semiconductor-based solutions are vacuum-tube based amplifiers, a technology that is decades old and has several limitations compared to the solid-state solution that Wavestream offers.
Company Heritage
Wavestream's highly focused team initially came together while working on spatial power combining technology at CalTech. The company brought the technology out of the lab to capitalize on new opportunities in high-frequency communications that were only addressable with vacuum-tube based designs.
