SatCom (Satellite Communication) is responsible for maintaining our ground station and implementing the satellite operations center. The team works closely with the Embedded team to implement the routing of commands from the operations center on the ground to the on-board computer on the satellites, and telemetry and data from the satellite to the center. The satellite and ground station radios are essential to ensure mission success. Much effort is being put into ensuring we have a reliable communication link with high bandwidth.
SatCom is also responsible for the SDR (Software Defined Radio) payload to be on board Biosat.
