Onboard Flight Software of Small Satellite

1. Onboard Flight Software of Small Satellite

Project Overview

Flight software of satellites works as the brain that controls satellite operation in orbit throughout its life cycle. Therefore, this system has been researched and developed to enable the capability of small satellites development in Thailand. In addition to the development of the flight software system, there must be a flight software testbed that can mimic the space environment for testing and verifying the developing flight software. The testbed is the satellite simulator system that simulating satellite onboard equipment, satellite dynamics and space environment.

Achievements

  1. Publish a paper: The Performance Issues and a New Architecture Design for the GISTDA Satellite Simulator (2021, International Electrical Engineering Congress (iEECON), Tanin S)
  2. Publish a paper: Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation for Satellite System Verification (2022, International Electrical Engineering Congress (iEECON), Tanin S)

2. LoRa Remote Communication Workshop Service Based on Half-cube

Project Overview

LoRa Technology is one of the most popular communication technologies used in the IoT (Internet of Things) field, characterized by its low power consumption and long-range communication distance. Currently, this technology has been deployed on a number of Low Earth Orbit satellites. In order to establish the basic knowledge and development direction of satellites, the research center has developed a satellite Internet of Things education and training toolkit with LoRa communication system: Half-cube.
