Antennas for Underground Communications (A4UC)

Year: 2022

Principal researcher: Fernando Aguado Aguelet

Financing: European Space Agency, ESA

Period: 01/11/2022 - 30/04/2024

ID: CN-UE-22-ANTENNASUC

This project will allow the development of antennas for unmanned exploration vehicles, more commonly known as ‘rovers’, to be used to explore the caves and tunnels of the Moon. The aim of A4UC is to provide a stable, high-speed communications link for these rovers to communicate within the caves and be able to send information from inside the caves. The University of Oviedo leads this project in collaboration with atlanTTic and the Eosol Group.
