TXMission at Satellite 2019: Show Preview

TXMission at Satellite 2019: Show Preview

April 24, 2019

This year’s Satellite 2019 takes place in Washington DC from 6 to 8 May. TXMission has a stand in the Startup Pavilion and will be exhibiting our advanced smallsat communications technology, including:

  • The CubeSat-format Quest™ Software Defined Radio. This supports the CCSDS telemetry standard with both DVB-S2/S2X and Viterbi/Reed Solomon waveforms. DVB-S2/S2X maximises data throughput for a given transmit power level. Data rates of up to 500Mbps are supported (at symbol rates of over 100Msps). Hi-resolution pictures and video from onboard sensors can be compressed to a fraction of their original size using our real-time hardware compression feature. Radiation hardened components in the key areas of power supply and processor ensure operation always recovers from any faults caused to the electronics by the effects of radiation. The communications subsystem is incredibly versatile and can optionally host both the flight computer software and the payload mass storage, making it the industry’s first ‘all-in-one’ CubeSat processor solution.
  • Our suite of communications products includes a ground station modem and our MissionSpan™ network management system that supports the monitor and control of entire constellations of satellites.

If you are visiting, please pass by stand SP3 in the startup area of the main exhibit hall. We look forward to seeing you there.
