- Lavina Parwani

- Tom Nordheim
- Geoff Hilton
- Per Magnus
Discussion
- "Hotel Payload" as a secondary payload
- We have to be careful of this as the CubeSat won't be allowed to operate in amateur frequencies if there is a pecuniary interest involved.
- Redundancy
- Having two MCU boards
- Possibly a conference paper topic?
- Can we prove mathematically that the suggested redundancy reduces system risk?
- Encryption/protection of uplink/downlink information to satellite
- We must take into account that in order to be able to use amateur frequencies, there can be no encryption; all communication must be in the clear.
- Creating of online "lab books"
- Wireless Sensor Network as payload
- Add to the report under "Future Tasks":
- getting a frequency and how to do it, as well as constraints where donations are concerned
- Reviewing the schedule and the Mission Definition Review (after the MFS review)
- For the designing and building team:
Tasks
- Subsystem leaders must add and refine information on their respective subsystems. If all of the subsystems do not have information by next meeting, people will be reassigned to correct this.
- Everyone must post at least one (1) blog entry this week at the SEDSat-2 Blog
