Abstract
The paper presents the implementation of wireless sensor system to California launch vehicle education initiative (CALVEIN) program. The CALVEIN program provides student the opportunity to build, design, and flight test low cost launch vehicles for education and technology development purposes. This enables the researchers to rapidly test new wireless aerospace technologies, which can be used in the future implementation of the nanosatellite launch vehicle (NLV).
