Description
Summary:This report encompasses the process of designing and developing a Can Satellite (CanSat which enables to communicate with its ground station at a very high altitude (> 10km). The CanSat will not only establish communication with the ground station but it will also transmit telemetry data it gathered while descending for further analysis. Prior designing the communication requirements for the CanSat, several concepts are to be considered and discussed to select the best options such as which devices are to be used. As the CanSat is an interdisciplinary project which requires other different platforms such as hardware, software, payload and launching to come together and develop a complete and functional CanSat, I am required to acquire that knowledge as well for my FYP.
