Action items

Status on follow-ups for last weeks action items (5 min)

  • Not complete (week 40) Mariusz Eivind Grøtte Get preliminary results from EOIR tool in STK (or MODTRAN) on "what can we see from space"
  • Not complete (week 40) Unknown User (rogerbi) A cost benefit analysis of power usage vs compression for comms.
  • Not complete (week 40) Unknown User (rogerbi) Present architecture for ground station, how will it work. Decide when upgrade happens, does that involve getting the total package such as h/w and s/w? And need a data system for storing and archiving. 
  • Not complete (week 40) Unknown User (sivertba) Find a student to do thermal analysis and coordinate with Mariusz
  • Not complete (week 40) Unknown User (joaoff) Report of what has been done with HSI imaging
  • Not complete (week 40) Give feedback on Gantt chart (ALL) - Still want a list of activities from each - respond to emails

Data from HSI

Discussion on how the processing chain should be. Do geometric processing last? 

Use JPEG2000 to do the spatial compression.

SNR calculations are going on. Find the correct model for noise is difficult. 

Hardware

New documentation for the camera (version 5) is uploaded to the Gdrive. New calculations are made. 

We still need to make a better CAD-model. Mariusz Eivind Grøtte is working on this, but needs a lot of input in order to finish this. 

Julian is working on layout for the PCB. Finding a source for components (image sensors) are hard; not really available on Digikey and so on. 

Challenge: How to mount the optics to the new PCB with the image sensor. What kind of fixtures can be used? There might be changes in the distance between the optics to the sensor, but the light after the optics are parallel, so that should not affect operation. Must be verified. The full design should be verified and approved by Fred before production. 

Thermal model

Mariusz, Sivert, Roger had a short meeting with a phd-student from mechanical eng. on thermal/environment tests. Should have a meeting with a professor there. 

Julian suggests that we try to reverse-engineer the casing and order parts so we can build several for testing. 

Software

Milica has been working on pre-processing. 500x500x100 size. Working on parallelisation. Plans for next two weeks are to test on the board. Optimize hardware implementation and so on. 

Close to complete the flow from bitstream to input. 

IdleTechs

 

Communications

Roger is working on SDR-report/design. Will go to AMES with updated info. 

Mission Design

Had a mission requirement review today. 

RCN Report

Work on-going
