1. 1. FPGA Implementation of an Online Free-Space Optical Communications Test-Bed

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Hamza Mahmoud; [2023]
   Keywords : Test-bed; FPGA design; PRBS; FSO; Optical communication; Testbädd; FPGA-design; PRBS; FSO; Optisk kommunikation;

   Abstract : Free Space Optical (FSO) satellite communications is proving to be a key enabling technology for global connectivity with the ability to provide connection across Europe with only 12 ground stations. For this, Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) is working on implementing a robust communication system for FSO on a Xilinx RFSoC Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)( ZU28DR). READ MORE

3. 2. A Camera System for the KTH MIST Satellite

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Volkan Coskun; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The KTH MIST satellite will include a Camera System that should capture pictures of Earth from Space. Due to low Bandwidth, the satellite can traverse several lapses around the Earth until the picture is transmitted down to Earth. The picture is processed and the raw pixels stored in an on-board DRAM. READ MORE

4. 3. Software Development and Qualification Testing of a CubeSat X-ray Monitor

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Marcus Persson; [2019]
   Keywords : embedded software; cubesat; software; firmware; cubes; mist; x-ray; fpga; asic; weeroc;

   Abstract : The CUBES (CUbesat x-ray Background Explorer using Scintillators) is a payload on the KTH student satellite MIST (MIniature STudent satellite) to evaluate Silicon Photo-multiplier technology and new scintillators such as GAGG (Gadolinium Aluminium Gallium Garnet, Gd3Al2Ga3O12) for future use in hard X-ray polarisation studies of Gamma-Ray Bursts. CUBES itself is designed to study the MIST in-orbit radiation environment by using a detector which is comprised of a silicon photomultiplier coupled to different scintillator materials. READ MORE

5. 4. Wireless wave propagation in city street canyons

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

   Author : Andrés Felipe Garcia Albarracin; [2017]
   Keywords : Channel modeling; Channel sounding; Local scattering function; Ray tracing.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This project aims to determine the characteristics of a wireless communication channel in city-street-canyon scenarios. The channel of a typical city intersection is modeled with a ray tracer and measured with a channel sounder. Then, the results of both tools are compared in terms of the local scattering function.

6. 5. Implementation of a Distributed Fault-Tolerant NoC-based Architecture for the Single-Event Upset Detector

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

   Author : Eleftherios Kyriakakis; [2017]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Today, with the rise of the private sector in space exploration, space missions are becoming more frequent than before. This in relation to the fact that modern electronics scale both faster and denser, the effects of radiation become a critical design requirement for fault-tolerance in on-board space computer systems.
