Summary
Adam Gannon is a Digital Signal Processing Engineer with 12 years of experience specializing in satellite and space communications, currently developing high-throughput systems for large satellites in the Los Angeles area. He has led cross-functional teams at NASA to take communications technologies from concept to validated prototype, delivering software-defined radio implementations of DVB-S2 and CCSDS protocols and enabling roaming between government and commercial relay satellites. His work spans the full protocol stack and includes building distributed automation frameworks and cloud-based pipelines that reduced manual mission operations and prevented onboard data loss. Adam has demonstrated phased-array terminal prototypes achieving >1 Gbps and developed user-initiated service software that enables near-real-time automated scheduling of space communications. His background combines deep academic research in cognitive and adaptive radio with practical FPGA, GNU Radio, and AWS-based systems engineering. He brings a rare blend of hands-on signal processing, systems integration, and operational automation tailored to high-rate, resilient space links.
