Abstract

AbstractA CanSat is a simulation of a real satellite, integrated within the volume and shape of a cylindrical structure. The challenge is to fit all the major subsystems found in a satellite, such as power, sensors and a communication system into this minimal volume. The CanSat is then launched to an altitude of few hundred meters by a rocket or dropped from a platform or captive balloon and its mission begins: To carry out a scientific experiment and achieve a safe landing. CanSat is composed of a Carrier and a Lander. Carrier's objective is to measure and transmit variation in Hydrogen gas concentration; change in temperature; altitude by non GPS system; GPS coordinates during its descent. Release of Lander from Carrier at an altitude of 150 m from ground, imaging in the nadir direction is the Lander's mission.
