Abstract

This paper describes the feasibility study of a Ka-band transceiver specifically designed for small satellite and CubeSat operations. The transponder is conceived to ensure up to 100 Mbit s-1 data rate with a target power consumption of 20W and an overall volume of 1.5U, not including the antenna. To keep the cost as low as possible, commercial, off-the-shelf electronic components are used whenever possible. Exploiting a data communication interface like the one proposed, the small satellites market could be opened to new applications such as remote sensing, Earth observation and commercial telecommunications.

Abstract

ISBN 978-2-87487-001-9; International audience; We present the practical realization of microwave switches (both in series or shunt configurations) based on reversible metal-semiconductor transitions exhibited by vanadium dioxide (VO2) material. This transition (thermally or electrically initiated) is used to switch on and off a microwave signal propagating in a microwave coplanar waveguide incorporating a thin VO2 film. The realised devices may be employed in applications were high speed/high power qualifications are required (fast reconfigurable antennas, tuneable components etc.).
