Data Collection System Transponder for MOS-1
Abstract
This paper describes the configuration, functions, performance, and performance test results of the Data Collection System Transponder (DCST) developed to be mounted on Marine Observation Satellite-1 (MOS-1). The DCST to be mounted on the satellite for MOS-1 missions is required to have high stability and high reliability. The DCST developed features low noise figure, high frequency stability, and high reliability without redundancy. The results show that the DCST will achieve stable operation of the missions on MOS-1.
