Department of Radiation Dosimetry of the Nuclear Physics Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences high-altitude balloon experiment

Repo TODO for documenting

• [ ] Block diagram update
• [ ] Correct submodule version PX4Firmware FMUv5
• [ ] Link to the used one-way Sik Modem Firmware
• [ ] Ground Software description
• [ ] Rescue cars Software description
• [ ] Standalone tracking device FW
• [ ] Payload FW and scripts

Used Scientific payload

• AIRDOS04 Prototype
• LABDOS01B
• LABDOS01A
• PiTED?
• MiniPIX

The used experiment support devices and technologies

• CUAV V5+ FMUv5 with customised PX4 Firmware supporting
  • [ ] 433 MHz Sik telemetry (one-way TX only)
  • [ ] 868 MHz Lora Telemetry (TX only)
  • [ ] TFHT01 Temperature and humidity sensors
  • [ ] TF-ATMON Logging of data from the payload
• [ ] Standalone tracking device

Design features

• Redundant telemetry link
• Gondola orientation tracking and logging
• Reliable IMU sensor processing and calibration
• Possible of use relatively high-power payloads
• Pre-flight continuous charging possible
• Power monitoring and maximal uptime calculation relevant to actual temperature
