Proceedings of International Conference on Artificial Life and Robotics ( ALife Robotics Corporation Ltd. ) 28 846 - 851 2023.02

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

Because of its communication volume constraints, scientific observations by nanosatellites need to reduce downlink data by onboard data preprocessing. Therefore, we tried to classify time series data of the geomagnetic field obtained by the SWARM satellite to determine the most appropriate method for onboard classification of a phenomenon in the geomagnetic field. The classifications have been executed using rule-based, K-means, and combined CNN methods. The experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the machine-learning model with LSTM networks.

In this paper, we report an achievement of Human Resource Development Program for student of National Institute of Technology (KOSEN). This program is aimed to cultivate an ability of the aerospace engineering in non-space major students. The program consists of three parts of sub-programs: (1) KOSEN Space Academia which is a remote hands-on seminar using video conference system (2) KOSEN Space Camp which is a four-days camp-style workshop held in Niihama city, and (3) KOSEN-1 project which is an actual development of 2U size CubeSat. A total of 263 students and 78 faculty members participated in this program for three years from 2017 to 2019.

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES, AEROSPACE TECHNOLOGY JAPAN ( THE JAPAN SOCIETY FOR AERONAUTICAL AND SPACE SCIENCES ) 19 ( 1 ) 123 - 129 2021.01

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

This paper reports the activities resulting from satellite communication lectures conducted by the KOSEN space group in January and August of 2018. Since 2014 the KOSEN space group has been developing two CubeSats to educate students and to complete scientific missions. Consequently, the aim of our lectures is to enable KOSEN students to monitor and operate the CubeSats by satellite communication. In the January lecture, students learned satellite communication theories, and practical training on the assembly and operation of simple receivers. In August, the students learned the theories of digital satellite communication and participated in advanced training using the simple receivers. A survey indicated the participants are interested in receiving signals from a real satellite in space, using the simple self-assembled receivers.
