The traditional amateur‑radio experiments installed on MARMOTSat include a half‑duplex digipeater in the style of IO‑117 and a VHF CW telemetry beacon, a 10‑meter CW telemetry beacon, and a DVB‑S2 beacon compatible with QO‑100‑style transmissions at 33 kHz or 66 kHz on the 10‑meter band. This DVB‑S2 beacon provides a live video feed, received by amateur‑radio operators, from an onboard camera.
The bandwidth can be detailed as follows: “Beacon DVB‑S2 QPSK, SR = 33 kS/s, roll‑off = 0.25, BW ≈ 41 kHz” “Beacon DVB‑S2 QPSK, SR = 66 kS/s, roll‑off = 0.25, BW ≈ 82 kHz”
When referring to QO‑100‑style operation, a low roll‑off (0.20–0.25) is appropriate to keep the occupied bandwidth narrow. If the modulation is QPSK, the beacon parameters will be: “Beacon DVB‑S2 QPSK, SR = 33 kS/s, roll‑off = 0.25, BW ≈ 41 kHz” “Beacon DVB‑S2 QPSK, SR = 66 kS/s, roll‑off = 0.25, BW ≈ 82 kHz”
For 33 kS/s:
Occupied bandwidth: ≈41 kHz
Recommended channel spacing: 45–50 kHz (to allow guard band)
For 66 kS/s:
Occupied bandwidth: ≈82 kHz
Recommended channel spacing: 90–100 kHz
Thank you for your attention
