Abstract

Cube satellites, or CubeSats, are small satellites that have become increasingly common for academic, amateur, commercial, and scientific applications over the past five to ten years. There is potential for CubeSats to be deployed in swarms and clusters, and a need for communication between satellites in these missions.

The purpose of this project is to design and demonstrate proof-of-concept for a Software Defined Radio (SDR) for communication between CubeSats. The preliminary design has focused on two main components: electrical and software design of the radio, and the mechanical packaging that will encase the radio chip-set and mount within the satellite.
