Technical Session VII: University Student Competition
Abstract
An overview of the communications components involved in the ASUSat 1 mission is discussed. The ASUSat 1 satellite will communicate with the Arizona State University ground station via an RF link in both a digital and analog mode in two amateur radio bands. In this way, ASUSat 1 will function as a voice repeater for the AMSAT community as well as to provide digital packet communications for the purpose of transferring data between the satellite and the ground station.
