Abstract :
During changing sun activity, the ionosphere is responding accordingly and therefore it is interesting to observe the propagation behavior of shortwave bands. For the above mentioned purpose we are designing a monitoring payload for an experimental cubesat satellite called PSAT. The payload consists of a receiver, which is able to receive SSB modulated narrowband signals in 28 MHz uplink band and a transmitter with FM modulation in UHF downlink frequency band. The receiver frequency is selected to be at the center of radio amateur activity with low data rate digital modulations.
