Antenna Design
INTRODUCTION The goal of PoCat payload 3 is to identify Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) in the lower Ka-band (24-25 GHz). A patch antenna is chosen as the resonant element for its lightweight, 2D design, and reduced size due to the inverse frequency-wavelen...
Data Acquisition
Parameters: struct rfi5gParameters{ char* name; uint32_t timestamp; uint32_t temperature; uint32_t startFrequency; } Constants General Constants #define N_SAMPLES 1000 #define NUM_FREQ 62 #define R 10 N_SAMPLES: Number of samples to capture in o...
RFI-Dedicated Thread
RFI Thread Introduction Like many other subsystems, the Payload is a self-contained sub-system and so it has its own FreeRTOS Thread. This thread is concieved to be able to control each of the two RFI monitoring payloads. As an overview, the thread is structur...
