Verify improved communications technologies and amateur radio payloads. |
| Description |
Verify improved communication technology to enhance the communication signal of satellites, and test the performance of our satellite components in the space. Synchrotron ionospheric transmission detection experiments based on multi-satellite and multi-band with the same GPS time base. Carry out amateur HF/VHF/UHF retransmitting experiments in any narrow-band mode. Carry out communications experiments between inter-satellite amateur loads, LIFI high-speed digital downlink and CW lamp signal communication experiments. |
| Notes |
There was an earlier application for 2U TY2-TY5 CubeSats from Spacety. Time will tell. |
