ARTIC R2

The ARTIC R2 is an integrated, low-power, small-size ARGOS 2/3/4 single chip transceiver. ARTIC implements a message based wireless interface. For satellite uplink communication, ARTIC will encode, modulate and transmit provided user messages. For downlink communication, ARTIC will lock to the downstream, demodulate and decode and extract the satellite messages. The ARTIC can transmit signals in frequency bands around 401MHz and receive signals in the bands around 466MHz, in accordance with the ARGOS satellite system specifications.

The ARTIC R2 supports:

  • Uplink:
    • ARGOS 2/3/4
  • Downlink:
