In an era distinguished by innovative communication technologies capable of linking with geosynchronous satellites, while being small enough to fit into a pocket of clothing, the modern battlefield commander and warfighter can know the precise location of surrounding friendly forces. This concept of communication involving satellites provides for a new tier of situational awareness in combat and noncombat environments, dating as far back as the Persian Gulf War. This tool altered the command...

The purpose of this thesis is to document my activities related to managing the design, analysis, construction, testing, and integration of a qualification and, possibly, a flight article in support of the NPS CubeSat Launcher (NPSCuL) project. This thesis will describe the process, experience, and results of managing the NPSCuL program, including the program budget and schedule in support of a flight opportunity as early as August 2010. NPSCuL is designed to utilize excess capacity on U.S....

Educating space professionals is an expensive endeavor. The use of technologies such as CubeSats can cut the cost giving space professionals real world experience in satellite design, testing, integration and operations. The Naval Postgraduate School-Solar Cell Array Tester (NPS-SCAT) will be the first of what may be many CubeSats developed by the Space Systems Academic Group, Small Satellite Laboratory. This thesis analyzes the NPS-SCAT program from the program managers point of view and...

A method to characterize particles in rocket exhaust plumes is developed. The particle velocity, size, and material composition are determined from crater characteristics resulting from impacts into aluminum and copper targets passed through the plume. The targets are mounted on a steel arm approximately 21 inches (53 cm) long which is rotated through the plume at sufficient velocity to prevent material failure resulting from thermal effects. A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) with secondary...

This master's thesis introduces the program management and concept of operations of the TINYSCOPE Program. TINYSCOPE is a 6U CubeSat designed as a low-cost and easily replaceable imaging spacecraft that can produce tactically relevant imagery data. Tactical requirements in this context would emphasize \"good enough\" image resolution with a rapid-response tasking loop and high revisit rate. The TINYSCOPE project intends to demonstrate the utility of small, risk tolerant spacecraft for...

C system. The thesis also explains the testing procedures of the transceiver and the design, test, and integration of the primary and secondary antennas. Finally the thesis explains the frequency licensing process through the Navy-Marine Corps Spectrum Center and the Federal Communications Commission.
