OVERVIEW Introduction Discussion Resources Costs Conclusions

INTRODUCTION Purpose Autonomous control system for Antenna Tower Background Ongoing project started in Launches with success rate of 95% Challenges include transmitting and receiving from high altitudes. Extreme cold temperatures. Human communication interference Current antenna system Upgraded antenna system Scope

JULY 2008 FLIGHT PREDICTION

LAUNCH FROM APRIL 2006

OVERVIEW Introduction Discussion Resources Costs Conclusions

DISCUSSION Approach Result Statement of Work

APPROACH Access to: -Russ Antenna -Current systems -Research Lab

DISCUSSION Approach Result Statement of Work

RESULT Dedicated tracking No user input

UPGRADED ANTENNA SYSTEM

DISCUSSION Approach Result Statement of Work

STATEMENT OF WORK Task 1: Research transmitter/receiver Task 2: Licensing Task 3: Review current system Task 4: Research autonomous systems Task 5: System block diagram Task 6: Implementation Task 7: Testing

OVERVIEW Introduction Discussion Resources Costs Conclusions

RESOURCES Personnel - Includes HAB Project Teams and will work closely with the CEG students working on the project Facilities and Equipment - HAB Testing Lab, Russ Engineering Computer Labs, and the Antenna Tower

OVERVIEW Introduction Discussion Resources Costs Conclusions

COSTS Fiscal 4 FCC Technician License $15.00 each = $60.00 Additional HAM radio transmitter and $400. Time Research and order proper set of transmitter/receiver (2 hours) Complete the FCC Technician License Exam for HAM radio license (10 hours) Acquire acces to the lab, antenna, and look over current system (8 hours) Research autonomous systems that would relate to project (15 hours) Construct Block diagram for an upgraded tracking system (8 hours) Upgrade program for to allow for autonomous rotation and tracking (50 hours) Testing of the upgraded system (20 hours) Total = 113 hours for working upgraded system
