“Data transfer from satellite to ground station emulator” application has been developed for modelling data transfer between a small spacecraft at low-earth orbit and a control center on Earth. The application takes into account multiple parameters allowing to replace a number of experiments. Additionally, the SGP4 model and models such of parameters such as bit error rate and rain rate attenuation are studied and used in development of the application. Finally, the use cases for the application in education and introduction of school and university students to space-themed projects are considered.

“Virtual space virtual satellite” (VSVS) software solution has been developed for computing the geomagnetic field and studying the results of modelling small spacecraft flight at low orbit with different parameters. The application will allow to replace a number of experiments. In addition, SGP4 and IGRF models are studied due to their role in development of the solution, as are the possible applications in developing solutions for educating high school and university students as well as introducing them to space-themed projects.
