NASA Ames Suborbital Flight Communication

The goal of the project is to develop a faster and more reliable communication system for satellites.

=Problem Definition=

Background
The background of the project is unknown.

Specifications
The primary goal of this project has us provide a development board for the 9523 Iridium modem, that breaks out all functionality, and a communications library for the development board that runs on a microcontroller.

The secondary goal of this project has us provide an example TDRV implementation of this project. The TDRV must have a 9523 Iridium modem, the development board, a microcontroller, a GPS receiver, an altimeter, a temperature sensor, and a camera. In addition, the TDRV must store all data on-board in case of communication failure, and must be able to survive re-entry.
