Özet
A new technique called Opportunistic Multiple Spacecraft Per Antenna (OMSPA) is being developed by scientists at the Deep Space Network (DSN), and at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). This technique is key to allow communication with many spacecraft from a single antenna simultaneously. Currently, this is not possible with the existing JPL-DSN infrastructure. In a historic alliance, Morehead State has been invited to be part of the DSN as the first ever external organization outside of NASA to do so. As part of this, the MSU 21 Meter Space Tracking Antenna will be used as a communications asset and to allow experimentation with new techniques like OMSPA. These techniques are possible when two or more spacecraft are along the line of sight of the antenna and within its main beam. Frequencies in a broadband are collected, digitized, and later individual spacecraft carriers are decomposed using digital signal processing techniques. Currently, using the DSN antenna assets for experimentation is difficult, as all existing assets are fully scheduled. The Space Science Center is proud to be able to contribute to the DSN by providing an experimental platform for the development of new and exciting technologies. This project is designed to construct the experimental platforms in hardware and software, as well as to document the effort so that this experiment can continue across the next several years.
