Derived Requirements Karim Barakat
Subsystem Overview C&DH Raw Telemetry Data: 228 Mbits Structures Withstand 15,000 g loads Transmitter Tx Antenna Medium OKINA [Relay Satellite] Encoder/Decoder Receiver Rx Antenna Power Peak ~ 5W [TBC] Thermal Control -20°C – 50°C Karim Barakat
Antenna Selection OKINA Uses Karim Barakat
LP-1 Resting Geometry Best Case Scenario Likely Scenario Worst Case Scenario Ref: Communication System and Operation for Lunar Probes Under Lunar Surface Karim Barakat
Coverage Karim Barakat
Tx Data Rate Requirement Karim Barakat
Link Budget Medium Communications Subsystem OKINA [Relay Satellite] Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power [EIRP] = Tx power – Tx feeder loss +Tx Antenna Gain Link Margin = EIRP – RF loss in Propagation – Rx RF Performance Karim Barakat
Dielectric Loss of Regolith • - Above 1 MHz independent of frequency and temperature • - The loss tangent is strongly dependent on the density of the content of (TiO2 +FeO). • Average density of the regolith from the antenna to the surface is estimated to be 1.6 - 1.85 g/cm3 ~0.8 dB Orbit altitude: 240 km elevation angle = 45 deg. rest-attitude of probe = 60 deg.
