Abstract

Our aim is to design and develop a PocketQube-class satellite as one possible continuation of Masat-1, the first Hungarian satellite. The planned payload of Smog-1 is an UHF band spectrum monitoring system. This system is able to measure the UHF band digital terrestrial TV signal levels around the world on a low Earth orbit as RF smog. The spectrum measurement system were flown by high altitude meteorological balloon.
