Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
- Objectives: The goal is to develop firmware that ensures reliable command, control, and data retrieval for the On-Board Computer (OBC) of the 3Cat8 satellite. This involves testing and verifying the functionality of communication protocols. Additionally, the project will focus on implementing and validating camera capture functionality through the PoCat VGACam, as well as commanding, configuring, and retrieving telemetry from the EPS.
- Methodology: The first step will involve validating the interfaces of the On-Board Computer (OBC) using hardware tools and debugging equipment to ensure proper functionality. This process will include a review of relevant literature, such as the Endurosat OBC user manual. The project will advance into developing and testing of firmware to enable image capture through the PoCat VGACam. Furthermore, commands will be implemented to retrieve telemetry data from the EPS, verifying its integration and performance. Finally, testing will be carried out to identify and resolve any potential issues, ensuring the robustness and reliability of the developed firmware.
- Expected results: The expected results include a fully functional and validated firmware capable of executing reliable command, control, and data retrieval operations for the 3Cat8 OBC. Additionally, comprehensive documentation of the development and validation process will be provided, serving as a valuable reference for future OBC stages.
