StratoLink

StratoLink is a motorized antenna system designed for reliable communication with low-altitude satellites, operating at a maximum altitude of 10,000 feet. The system aims to establish a strong communication link between the small satellite and a ground station by tracking the satellite's position in real-time and adjusting the orientation of the antenna accordingly.

Features

  • Motorized, two-axis antenna system for ground station communication
  • Real-time tracking and antenna adjustment based on satellite position and orientation data
  • Compatible with CanSat projects and other low-altitude satellite applications
  • Support for various communication protocols, including XBee with SMA connections

Applications

StratoLink is suitable for various applications, such as:

  • Educational projects, including CanSat competitions
  • Amateur radio satellite communications
  • Remote sensing and data collection from low-altitude satellites
  • Ground station communication for weather balloons or high-altitude drone operations By providing an adaptable and accurate antenna tracking system, StratoLink enables efficient communication with small satellites, ensuring the successful transmission and reception of data throughout their missions.
