UVM CricketSat Wireless Sensor

Remote Temperature Measurement Possible Application –Measure temperature in the upper atmosphere –10 km altitude Two challenges: –Measure temperature indirectly –Long-range wireless transmission of data

Thermistor Temperature Sensor Resistance changes with temperature Problem: Resistance cannot be measured directly Requires additional circuitry to produce an electrical response Oscillator circuit is the simplest and lowest cost solution

Produces an oscillation that changes with temperature Circuit based on the popular 555-Timer IC Frequency determined by two resistors and a capacitor Resistive and capacitive type sensors may be substituted In our case, the upper resistor is replaced with a thermistor Temperature Sensitive Oscillator

555-Timer Oscillator Demo Click on picture for online demo

Frequency vs Temperature Thermistor resistance increases with colder temperature, reducing charging current Charging time increases, reducing the frequency

The Wireless Connection Timer output signal enables transmitter during charging interval of the timing cycle Oscillator frequency is mixed with RF carrier frequency Antenna is sized for carrier frequency -> short

Receiving Station Receiver extracts oscillator frequency Frequency measured by instrument or software Calibration charts used to determine temperature CricketSat Sensor Oscillator frequency determined by temperature Oscillator output signal modulates RF carrier frequency
