quantumRadio provides the signal processing functions required for space-ground communication. Designed for small satellite programs, it is a virtual solution that can be loaded on a bare-metal machine or directly to the cloud.

Highlights

Leveraging new software technology and innovative approaches specifically designed to match the requirements, schedules, and budgets of quick turn, small spacecraft programs, a simple Internet connection allows access and control from anywhere, with no client software to install or maintain.

quantumRadio delivers the typical signal processing functions required for small satellite space-ground communication, including modulation, demodulation, error correction, and up/down frequency conversion. It supports a wide range of tunable uplink/downlink frequency bands at low to high data rates and has been pre-tested with a wide range of common space radios.

Features

• Supports cubesats, nanosats, microsats, and smallsats
• Compatibility tested with most widely used space radios
• Built-in test functions reduce Integration and Test (I&T) effort
• Configurable as mission requirements change or as new missions come online
• Standard TCP/IP, GEMS, REST, and VITA-49 interfaces
