Additional information SMDC ONE 2.3
Demonstrate the ability to rapidly design and develop militarily relevant low cost spacecraft. Receive packetized data from multiple Unattended Ground Sensors (UGS). Transmit that data to ground stations within the SMDC-ONE ground track. Provide real time voice and text message data relay to and from field deployed tactical radio systems. Demonstrate SMDC-ONE operational life time of 12 months or longer.
The mission for Charlie and David was to extend the ultra-high frequency (UHF) SATCOM experimentation and demonstration of Able and Baker.
