[amsat-bb] OrigamiSat-1 5.8Ghz CubeSat

[Hiroki Nakanishi]

Hello,

OrigamiSat-1 (3U CubeSat, JS1YAX) developed by Tokyo Institute of 
Technology will be launched from the JAXA Uchinoura Space Center on 
January 17, 2019 with NEXUS and AOBA-Velox-IV into a 500 km sun 
synchronous orbit.

The main purposes of this satellite are:
-----
1. Technology acquisition of high-speed data downlink in 5.8GHz band 
from a satellite to ground stations
2. On orbit demonstration for deployment of a membrane with SMA (Shape 
Memory Alloy) antenna.
-----

Downlink band:
-437.505MHz (20K0F2D (1200bps) and 500HA1A) (Constant use)
-5.840GHz (420KF1D (115kbps)) (Emission will be scheduled)

Expected TLE will be almost same as NEXUS. OrigamiSat-1 is deployed from 
rocket 100sec earlier than NEXUS.

The detail of the mission and telemetry format are
released on our web page.
