ANU Institute for Space | InSpace is proud to announce that the latest ANU iLAuNCH project, Resilient Radio for Satellite Communication (SATCOMM) has gone live! 

Congratulations to The Australian National University Associate Professor Nan Yang and Inovor Technologies and to the all in the iLAuNCH family who got this project across the line - testimony to our commitment to catalyse space manufacturing and translate space technologies.

To make SATCOMM more resilient, Inovor Technologies and The Australian National University are co-developing a new software-defined radio (SDR) solution that is set to be onboard all of Inovor’s locally manufactured satellites. 🛰 
iLAuNCH Trailblazer ED Darin Lovett remarked that this project will demonstrate critical space-flight heritage, paving the way for exports.

“These SDRs are being designed to resist the extreme temperatures and radiation levels of space and will be able to position satellites more accurately post launch and feed control information to the onboard maneuvering system,” said Inovor CEO and Founder, Matthew Tetlow.

“We are employing a postdoc fellow who will extend our R&D beyond simulation technologies for ground testing. We will also enhance the system’s ability to maintain resilient radio links, regardless of the interference encountered,” said ANU Lead of Information and Signal Processing Cluster, Associate Professor Nan Yang.
