You will be using calibrated Yagi antennas and software-defined radio dongles to catch live signals, not just watching simulations. It is guided by a retired ISRO scientist, so you are learning mission-proven methods directly from someone who spent their career building space systems. ### Bridging the Gap Between Classroom and Cosmos Most satellite communication courses stop at textbook definitions of orbital mechanics. We take it further. Our two-day workshop is designed to turn your college lab or seminar hall into a ground station. #### What You Actually Do - **Live Satellite Tracking:** We use professional software like Gpredict and Orbitron to track the International Space Station (ISS) and active satellites in real-time. You learn how to predict pass times, calculate Doppler shifts, and orient antennas for maximum gain. - **Signal Decoding:** You don't just see a signal; you extract data from it. Participants use RTL-SDR dongles to capture live transmissions and decode APT weather images from NOAA satellites. You will see firsthand how raw frequency data converts into usable imagery. - **Hardware Mastery:** We teach you how to construct functional 3-element Yagi antennas from basic materials like PVC and steel tape. It is an exercise in resourcefulness that demonstrates how space-grade reception can be achieved with smart engineering. #### Why Learn from ISRO Experts? Theory is important, but practical engineering is about handling constraints. Our sessions are led by professionals like Shri B. A. Subramani, who bring experience from India's most critical space missions. They discuss payload systems, frequency spectrum management, and the realities of working in the public sector—insights you cannot get from a generic curriculum. This is a high-value program for students aiming for careers in aerospace, telecommunications, or defense. Every participant receives a certificate co-signed by the ISRO scientist, providing a verified stamp of practical competency for your academic or professional profile. We provide all the necessary SDR kits and hardware on a returnable basis to ensure your institution can host this without heavy upfront investment in equipment. We generally require a minimum batch of 40 students to ensure each group gets enough hands-on time with the antennas and workstations. ## About i-RoboChakra I am Krishna Rao, and at i-Robochakra, I believe science belongs in the hands of the curious, not locked away in textbooks. I set up these satellite programs so you can track the ISS and decode live weather data using real space-tech tools, with retired ISRO scientists by your side to answer the questions you won't find in your syllabus.
