The problem
Student satellites need ground stations, but setup and scheduling are complicated.
What to build
Create software that predicts passes, points an antenna controller and logs received data.
Success looks like
Correct pass predictions for a real satellite and a working rotator demo with logs.
Suggested technologies
- Orbital mechanics
- TLE data
- Antenna control
- Software-defined radio
- Scheduling
