Beacon Frame
Notes: To decode, the bit stream should be NRZS decoded, then descrambled (G3RUH), then bit stuffing removed as per the AX.25 protocol. A summary of these can be found in: Communications Infrastructure for the MOST Microsatellite Project (Laura Halliday 2000).
Satellite Data
The table below contains the satellite data (mostly sensor readings) in order. The decode method refers to functions given in the python script below to demonstrate the scaling used for each field.
