The worldwide adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) depends on the massive deployment
of sensor nodes and timely data collection. However, installing the required ground …

This article presents a feasibility analysis to remotely estimate the geo-location of a femto-
satellite only using two station-CubeSats and the communication link between the femto …

Short development life cycle and low cost of cubesat-based mission have motivated the
growing number of nanosatellite launched in the last decade around the world. Fast and …

The success of CubeSat space missions depends on the ability to perform properly in a
harsh environment. A key component in space missions is the flight software, which …

This paper presents results on the modeling and simulation of the electric power system
(EPS) of a ship-tracking CubeSat. The main objective of the present study is to develop …
