Operational constellation of 0.3U CubeSats for connecting remote monitoring devices.

Description

The operational satellites would be 1/3U, or a third of the size of a 10 x 10 x 10-centimeter cubesat.

Using very high frequency (VHF) band spectrum, Apogeo plans to use its network of tiny satellites to connect low-power, battery-powered devices outside of terrestrial network coverage. 

A network of 20 satellites would be enough to retrieve data from devices anywhere on the globe with a maximum 30-minute wait time, according to Apogeo, and the full constellation would enable continuous coverage.
