Programme: GSTP Prime Contractor: Libre Space Foundation

Objectives

• Dual-band, highly configurable radio transceiver with an affordable price • Open technologies and open access to all components of the system • Cognitive radio and spectrum monitoring capabilities • Over the air update capability

Description

Achievements and status: • Flight heritage: Achieved TRL-8 on the CURIUM-1 mission for the UHF-TX functionality. • Commercialization: Outsourced the assembly process. Already delivered an EM and signed multiple contracts for EM & FM deliveries in 2025, among which is the HELEO mission, where LSF is part of a larger consortium. University teams constitute the majority of our client base.• Community utilization: A modified version of the board is utilized by a university team on their CubeSat project.• Hardware status: Radiation hardness enhancement (shielding + components), EMI/EMC enhancement (power filter, shield)• Software status: TC&C interface through YAMCS with CCSDS XTCE, FPGA signal processing operations enhancement
