Michelle Thompson of Open Research Institute
An Open Source protocol for amateur radio satellites
AMSAT stands for the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation. After 50 years of steady success in launching and operating over 85 amateur radio satellites, AMSAT is taking a big step forward into microwave digital payloads at 5 and 10 GHz. Because of the increased complexity of digital microwave satellites, new radios must be developed for the ground. Phase 4 Ground is an all-volunteer open-source effort to bring a world-class DVB-protocol-based radio to life. Radios will range from do-it-yourself bespoke rigs to manufactured solutions. There are enormous and rewarding challenges and a wide variety of constraints and considerations.
Biography:
Michelle Thompson has an MSEE in Information Theory, professional experience in Globalstar, founded the Open Research Institute, and has contributed within multiple amateur radio payload projects since 2008.
