Description

TAUSAT2 is a 2U CubeSat developed using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components. The satellite carries a science payload of Light Emitting Diodes that will be used to conduct a peaceful scientific experiment by TAU in optical tracking of miniature objects in space. In addition, the satellite includes an S-band transmitter aimed at demonstrating a novel communication protocol, suggested by TAU, in various signal-to-noise regimes.
