What ANTENNA does

Chengdu Deshan Technology (成都德杉科技有限公司), operating under the brand Deshan Technology and commercially as ANTENNA, is a privately-held Chinese technology company founded in 2014 that designs and manufactures antenna products and integrates them with AI and IoT capabilities. The company's product portfolio spans five antenna categories (satellite communication, millimeter-wave, data link, special-purpose including phased array and holographic, and RFID) plus four solution categories (antenna application systems, smart tool cabinets, wireless passive sensing, and IoT solutions). Core technologies include phased array antennas, holographic antennas with sub-1mm conformal skin form factors, intelligent reflecting surface / metamaterial-based stealth design software, and an IoT control box (DSCB-305) with an embedded Scene Intelligence Edge System (SIE). The MAIS intelligent unmanned asset management system combines face recognition, RFID, millimeter-wave radar, and high-precision positioning for multi-modal industrial asset tracking.

The company targets B2B enterprise customers in aerospace and defense, railway systems, power and energy, and industrial IoT verticals, with a marquee customer list that includes Chinese defense and electronics state-owned enterprises CASIC, CSIC, CETC, and Jiuzhou Group, plus Huawei and the Chengdu Railway Bureau. Go-to-market is sales-led direct enterprise engagement with 7x24 service support, complemented by a Taobao storefront for select products. The company holds Weapon Equipment Quality Management System Certification, which underwrites its defense supplier status, and claims 100+ patents including PCT international filings.

Deshan is funded by approximately $1.89 million across two disclosed rounds (2016 seed and 2017 round from Zhenran Ziben), operates a 48-50 person R&D team, and in 2025 received IPO preparation guidance from the Minjian Sichuan Provincial Committee, signaling an intent to pursue a public listing. Strategic direction is shaped by a 2021 partnership with UESTC-linked Sihan Technology to jointly pursue national grid tool cabinet and scene intelligence applications.
