E1.05 - Satellite Antenna Array
Satellite antenna array for space communication
Sponsor: Ingram School of Engineering
Student Team: Miguel Montes, Carson Harville, Alec Prescott, Miguel Trujillo
Faculty Advisor: Mr. Mark Welker
Our project is an antenna array that enables communication with Texas State University (TXST) satellites in low-Earth orbit. It receives narrowband signals from satellites, transmits data and instructions, and performs reliably even under hazardous weather conditions. This is important because it equips TXST with the ability to engage in satellite communications, fostering the development of its space research community. According to NASA, having a ground-based antenna to communicate with satellites enables “…students, teachers, and faculty to obtain hands-on flight hardware design, development, and build[ing] experience.”
