Who We Are

Adaptive Radio Technologies offers elegantly designed, ground-breaking communications systems for space, weight, and power-constrained applications. Our comprehensive systems dramatically increase the value of missions by increasing communications bandwidth a factor of 10x or more without a corresponding increase in power demand. We also offer specialized subcomponents for those building their own communications platforms.

Based in Los Alamos, New Mexico, our company is at the frontier of aerospace research, with a wealth of knowledge and capabilities at our fingertips. We look forward to understanding your needs as a customer and partnering with you on meaningful solutions.

About Our Founders

Mr. Michael Caffrey, President.

Caffrey was the principal investigator for the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) Adaptive Radio project. He led the engineer team that conceived, developed and proved (in laboratory experiments) the adaptive radio algorithm. Caffrey also leads the engineering team that conceived, built, tested, integrated and operates the Cibola Flight Experiment satellite software defined receiver instrument. Caffrey is currently a team leader in the ISR-3 Space Data Systems group at LANL. He holds an M.S in Electrical Engineering and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Summa Cum Laude, both from University of New Mexico.

Dr. Joseph Palmer, Chief Technical Officer.

Palmer was co-investigator for the LANL Adaptive Radio project. He developed the key techniques that enable the adaptive radio. Palmer's doctoral research focused on digital radio receiver design. He was previously a communications engineer and system architect for an experimental telemetry system developed for the United States Air Force. Palmer holds a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, an M.S. in Electrical Engineering and a B.S. in Computer Engineering, all from Brigham Young University.

Mr. Keith Morgan, Chief Operations Officer.

Morgan's current responsibilities include satellite payload hardware and firmware design. He is currently serving as vice-chair of the National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for High-performance Reconfigurable Computing (CHREC). He holds an M.S in Electrical Engineering and a B.S. in Computer Engineering, both from Brigham Young University.
