Introducción a la comunicación por radio en CanSat
Welcome to CANSAT EVA!
00:00:01
Let's talk about radio communications and the Jaggi antenna.
00:00:11
Radio waves are all around us in our everyday life.
00:00:22
But what do we mean by a radio wave?
00:00:26
And how are radio waves important for your CANSAT mission?
00:00:30
Lots of our day-to-day communications rely on radio waves, perhaps things you wouldn't expect, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
00:00:36
Not just car radios. We will explore what exactly radio waves are and how we can use them to communicate with our concepts.
00:00:47
Radio communication is sending information from one place to another using a type of electromagnetic wave, radio waves.
00:01:02
As you can see here in the electromagnetic spectrum, radio waves are at the long wavelength end of the spectrum and, unlike sound, they can propagate in vacuum.
00:01:12
Let's explore the radio spectrum.
00:01:27
As you can see in the image, for satellite communications we use super high frequency
00:01:35
bands with frequencies ranging from 2 GHz to 30 GHz and wavelength ranging from 1 cm
00:01:41
to 10 cm, these waves fall within the microwave band. So radio waves of these particular frequencies
00:01:53
are called microwaves. In turn, we will work in the ultra-high frequency
00:02:03
event of this spectrum. We'll use either an APC220 transmitter, which works at 433MHz
00:02:10
approximately or a LoRa transmitter, which works at 868MHz. XB is commonly used in IoT,
00:02:23
but we will not consider it here, depending on the type of data that we want to transmit
00:02:36
and the distance, we will choose a different transmitter and a different frequency.
00:02:47
If you have a simple piece of data to transmit, such as a SOS signal, but over a significant
00:02:56
distance a low frequency so long wavelength is perfect however broadcasting video from a
00:03:05
concept to a ground station requires a much higher bit rate but over a much shorter distance so is a
00:03:15
higher frequency is preferred. How does radio communication work?
00:03:25
A transmitter creates an oscillating signal on a cable connected to the antenna. That signal
00:03:34
is transformed and emitted as electromagnetic waves through the antenna. At the receiving
00:03:43
end of the communication, part of this wave is collected and transformed back into electric
00:03:51
current by another antenna. The concept project will involve two antennas. The first is the antenna
00:03:58
on board the Gensat, a DAC antenna. The second is the antenna at the ground station, a Jackie antenna.
00:04:09
A DAC antenna is likely the type of antenna you are most familiar with because you will
00:04:17
find them on the back of your household routers or modem.
00:04:29
Inside the plastic casing of a DAC antenna is a metal helix.
00:04:37
This is used to receive or transmit the signal.
00:04:42
Another type of antenna you would be familiar with is the jaggy antenna.
00:04:48
This is the antenna that is often found connected to old-fashioned televisions and on the rooftops
00:04:53
that receive analog television signals.
00:05:03
Building a jaggy antenna for a concert is a good option, as it can be constructed relatively
00:05:06
easily using cheap materials such as wood and copper tubes.
00:05:14
Now we're gonna design our jaggy antenna using the KN9B Jaggy Antenna Calculator.
00:05:25
We're gonna fix the frequency under number of elements, let's say 433 MHz for a typical
00:05:33
APZ220 transmitter.
00:05:43
What about the number of elements?
00:05:46
One of the main factors affecting the jaggy antenna gain is the number of elements in
00:05:49
the design.
00:05:55
Typically, a reflector is the first element added in any jaggy design, as it gives the
00:05:56
most additional gain.
00:06:03
Directors are often added.
00:06:06
Element spacing is another factor that must be considered.
00:06:11
Spacing can have an impact on the jaggi gain, although not as much as the number of elements.
00:06:18
Finally, the antenna length. When computing the optimum position for the various elements,
00:06:27
it has been shown that in a multi-element jaggi array, the gain is generally proportional to the
00:06:34
length of the array. With 8 elements distributed according to these lengths, we can finally
00:06:42
design our jaggy antenna, with a gain of almost 11 decibels, which is a rather good value for a cancer.
00:06:53
Now it's time for our jaggy antenna challenge. This is a jaggy antenna that we have in Madrid
00:07:03
Science Fair. You have to put all the different parts of the antenna in order. Would you be able
00:07:13
to do it? Congratulations! You've done a great job! Please continue with our atmospheric gincana
00:07:21
too long to the rocket.
