A Framework for Validation and Testing of a CubeSat Retarding Potential Analyzer
Traditionally, Retarding Potential Analyzers (RPAs) operate exclusively on large satellites due to the size, power, and mass constraints posed by nano-satellites like CubeSats. These sensors take in-situ measurements of Earth's atmospheric ion current during a range of time-varied ``retarding&q...
