A Planar Antenna and Modular Subsystem Design for Cubesats
نویسنده
چکیده
Previous University of Hawaii CubeSats constantly used new designs for each succeeding project. Having to redesign the three major subsystems (TTC, PGD, CDH) to accommodate a particular payload resulted in long development times and a steep learning curve for new members. To avoid these problems a modular subsystem design was researched and implemented. The utilization of standard connectors with all subsystem boards, and the independence of payloads in the design of subsystems were adopted to create a modularized CubeSat platform that could be used in future projects without modification. Two different types of planar antennas were also researched and designed to address shortcomings of previous CubeSat antennas.
