Abstract
We had the opportunity to launch prototype CanSats, small satellites the size of a soft drink can, on an amateur rocket in September 1999 (ARLISS: A Rocket Launched International Student Satellites). We developed four CanSats for ARLISS: CanSat Type1 and Type2 missions are experiments of two different types of mechanisms for tether applications, CanSat Type3, is a communications and electronic devices test satellite, and CanSat Type4 is equipped with CCD camera and transmits video images. The development period is less than 5 months. In this paper, we describe 4 CanSats missions, subsystem designs including the ground station and the results of ARLISS experiments.
