| Abstract(in English) | The Rapid International Scientific Experiment Satellite (RISESAT), a 50-kg class Earth observation microsatellite developed by the Space Robotics Laboratory of Tohoku University, was launched in January 2019. RISESAT carries the Very Small Optical Transmitter (VSOTA), a 1-kg class dual-band optical transmitter developed by NICT in order to demonstrate an optical downlink from LEO-to-ground. The microsatellite and its payloads have recently completed the initial operations phase and are beginning to conduct mission experiments as part of normal operations. This paper will discuss the preliminary results and status of VSOTA that show the payload to be operating normally. |
