Description	The presentation addresses recent research and development on VHF Data Exchange System (VDES) and SIGINT payloads for Cubesat satellites led by MBI S.r.L.. VDES is the second generation of the well-known AIS technology used for vessel tracking and other maritime services. Covered topics: RF bread-boarding and DSP of a VDES payload for Cubesat in the framework of the ARTES AT project VOCS coordinated by MBI and with DWave and TAS-I as project partners. ESA funded VDES Link ID 20 up-link live test campaign (30+ satellite passes) using exactEarth and Space Norway satellites Geo-Localization Algorithm for Cubesat payloads able to geo-localize ground VHF emitters with a precision up to 1 km using a single satellite pass. Tested on-ground using real on-board recordings from the VDES live test campaign. AIS spoofing algorithm for Cubesat payloads. Tested on-ground using real on-board recordings from the VDES live test campaign.
