LINK BUDGET FOR NTNU TEST SATELLITE

Abstract

Designing of components, setting-up of the Earth station, analyzing quality of downloaded data, and the several implied areas on satellite project, requires knowing information of the link capacity. It has derived in different calculations to obtain Link Budget since the NUTS project started, made from different subsystems perspectives that once had been done and link information was used calculation remained with the initial theoretical values and assumptions. Taking in account updates, and even components installed, in conjunction with a tracking analysis, will lead to more realistic results and then let introduce more complex concepts on transmitted message in order to improve the performance, modulations schemes and error control will be treated. Combinations of those transmission techniques should be within restrictions of NTNU Test Satellite.
