  • Abstract
    Universidad Politécnica de Madrid will participate in the Alphasat propagation experiment by measuring the copolar level of the Q-Band beacon at 39.4 GHz. The experiment objective and layout are presented in this paper, together with some examples of the first measurements carried out in the current preliminary phase of the experiment.
