SSC14-IX-6 Design of a Free-Space Optical Communication Module for Small Satellites
Free-space optical (FSO) communication technology has the potential to provide power-efficient communication links for small satellites that outperform traditional radio frequency approaches. Extremely high-gain apertures at optical carrier frequencies enable significantly improved performance. We present a design for a miniaturized CubeSat-scale optical transmitter capable of supporting downli...
متن کاملDeployable Reflectors for Small Satellites
A key limitation for future Small Satellite communications and radar missions will be available antenna reflector aperture. Two types of reflectors are dominant for satellite RF systems today, rigid, single-piece reflectors and deployable mesh reflectors. Single-piece reflectors are limited to the aperture that fits inside a launch vehicle without packaging the reflective surface. Mesh reflecto...
متن کاملDesign and Development of a Small Stereovision Sensor Module for Small Self-Contained Autonomous Robots
We designed a small stereovision (SSV) sensor module for easily adding visual functions to a small robot and enabling their use. The SSV sensor module concept includes 1) a vision sensor module containing a camera and a visual processor and 2) connecting to a robot system through general-purpose interface. This design enables the use of visual functions as ordinary sensors such, as touch or ult...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Spaceborne GPS Receiver for Precise Relative Navigation of Formation Flying Small Satellites
Use of the differential carrier phase measurements of the Global Positioning System (GPS) can achieve centimetre-level accuracy thus it can be applied to the relative positioning in formation flying missions. This paper describes the development of a spaceborne GPS receiver upon the UNSW’s Namuru GPS receiver, which is built on the field of field programmable gate array (FGPA). Operating a GPS ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Power Efficient, Restartable, "Green" Propellant Thruster for Small Spacecraft and Satellites
This paper details the development of an innovative "green" hybrid rocket propulsion system, applicable to small spacecraft. When fully developed this propulsion technology has the potential to act as a "drop in" replacement for propulsion system utilizing hazardous propellants such as hydrazine. Fuel grains are manufactured using a form of additive manufacturing known as Fused Deposition Model...
