1. Notes on this template You may reformat this to fit your design, but make sure you cover the information requested in this template. Presentations should be emailed in either.ppt,.pptx, or.pdf format to bgarcia@colorado.edu at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled review.bgarcia@colorado.edu You have 30 minutes to present and 15 minutes for questions. Practice your presentation. Make sure all team members have a chance to talk. Don’t read your slides word-for-word. 1

2. 2 Mission Statement & Goals: -One sentence mission statement -State goals and objectives succinctly -One slide only!

3. 3 Design: -Cover the highlights of your design -Pictures, videos, graphs, and/or flow charts required -Total mass and $ Budget only – Not itemized lists -Total number of students involved -Start date of your project and design -May be 1 to 3 slides if you have lots of visuals

4. Payload Status  Payload Status  Highlight details or likely concerns  Use the chart at right to show high level readiness. 4

5. Test 1 : Quad chart Temp testing 5 Objective : Confirm TX and RX Antenna Performance Procedure Name(s): UN5-COM711, UN5-COM712 Completion Date : July 9, 2009, Dec 12, 2009 Applicable Documents : UN5-COM711, UN5-COM712R Notes: Use this quad chart as an outline. Provide test results. This is a quick way to show testing objectives, results and conclusions. Don’t worry about document names. One Quad chart per major testing area is an option. Pictures and data focused. Test Setup Overview : TX antenna tuned and pattern obtained at FirstRF anechoic chamber. Test Details : Results : TX and RX antennas have gain patterns to support com Link Budget and attitude requirements. Also confirmed in long rang testing Open Issues : Post Long range testing during integration, the RX antenna required rework. RX antenna tuning was confirmed to be similar to that during Long range testing. This will be reconfirmed during Flight Unit system wide testing. Issue tracking as DANDE-OI-001. RX antenna return loss tuned at FirstRF and far field pattern obtained in large open field due to lower VHF frequency. Took measurements at 40m while rotating DANDE RF EDU to obtain pattern. Tuning and pattern results.

6. Test 2 : Focus on Payload functionality 6 Objective : Confirm Com System End-to-End test Procedure Name(s): UN5-COM705 Completion Date : Jan 2011 Applicable Documents : UN5-COM705R, UN5-710R Test Setup Overview : Checkout of Ground and flight side hardware and software. Test Details : Mission supporting data rates seen up and downlink. Used Free Space Losses to simulate 450km altitude and 15 deg elevation mask, worst case orientations Results : Up/Downlink rates confirmed in various attitudes. Data conversation factors documented. Updates: Post long range testing, COM305 board was populated and checked out with bench testing. COM305 Gold will be tested during complete system checkout. Open Issues : Post Long range testing during integration, the RX antenna required rework. RX antenna tuning was confirmed to be similar to that during Long range testing. This will be reconfirmed during Flight Unit system wide testing. Issue tracking as DANDE-OI-001. TNC’s tuned and all ground station hardware in flight Ops configuration.

7. 7 Expected Results: -Describe the conclusions you expect to make from the data from your flight -Review the procedure for making your payload ready at the launch site -Review the procedure for securing test samples following recovery (if applicable). -Test data should be included -Graphs, video, pictures essential -MUST SEE pictures of your finished payload. -This should take 1-2 minutes of your talk -May be many slides if you have lots of visuals

8. 8 Open Items -Complete list of any work still required, a detailed burn down list with scheduled dates showing you are ready for the flight with contingency time to spare
