Students, space enthusiasts, and RF engineers
Worth noticing
The team describes separate X-band and K-band receivers with on-board processing for compact downlinked records.

Field notes

RFI-PaCe describes a PocketQube-class payload rather than a general space club project. Its proposed architecture separates X-band and K-band reception, then processes interference on board so the downlink can carry a compact record instead of raw signal. The page presents the work as an Australian student-team entry in the sixth IEEE GRSS Student Grand Challenge and includes a partner-and-sponsor pathway; a sponsorship prospectus is marked as coming soon.
