Miguel Ambriz Aerospace Engineering Week Four
Week four was a lot of troubleshooting. Firstly, the 31st, we decided to head to the lab. Waiting for everything to set up, I observed another intern (who was much older than I) doing some other radio testing. Essentially, his computer was sending a modulation called QPSK to a radio that runs the bits sent (bits […]
