SAT CAP WORKSHOP 2022

Over the past few years, the MTTS student branch chapter has put on numerous events that have helped undergraduate students develop their soft skills and close the knowledge gap between academia and industry.

The SATCAP 2022 Webinar and Workshop, part of a series of activities put on by the IEEE MTTS student division, witnessed two outstanding programs reach key milestones.

Eng Tharindu Dayarathne, a graduate of the electrical and electronic engineering department of the faculty of engineering, University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka and the designer of the country's first satellite, RAVANA 1, in 2019, conducted the session successfully.

The main objective of the workshop was to capture the signals from the KITSUNE satellite. Participants were divided into four groups and provided with the task of building a QHF antenna. All the guidance was given to make the antenna step by step, and at the end of the workshop, four QHF antennas were built and were able to capture radio signals by all the antennas successfully.Some participants even waited to catch satellite signals at around 11.45 PM, which is truly incredible, and they were successful in receiving the signals.

The event was indeed a tremendous success. A Souvenir was given out to Eng Tharindu Dayarathne to appreciate his enormous support and dedication throughout the event.The event was completed successfully, giving all the participants a memorable chance to take part in a creative, interesting antenna workshop session.Another accomplishment in the illustrious success tale ended just like that. With this fulfillment, we anticipate achieving greater heights in the future.
