Development Of A Satellite Repeater Object - Internship 6 months

Notre vision : donner vie aux objets ! Dans le futur, des milliards d’objets dans le monde entier seront connectés à Internet ; leurs données seront stockées dans le Cloud et participeront à la numérisation de notre environnement. Une solution de connectivité globale, simple, peu coûteuse et à faible consommation est fondamentale.
Chaque Sigfoxer est animé par le projet d’entreprise de révolutionner le monde ! Sigfox est le lieu propice au challenge personnel et collectif. Ici se côtoient quotidiennement près de 44 nationalités différentes : la diversité est l’un de leur point fort.

Our team is in charge to develop network equipment products and associated industrial means. We are also referent to support the development of new products using Sigfox technology and to propose reference designs to partners.

The main objective is to reflect about a repeater device concept that communicates with one or more satellites. The idea is to collect the messages from terrestrial devices and then when the repeater is in visibility of a satellite, this one send the messages to satellite. After a concept analysis phase, there will be a design hardware and software phase. The aim is to be able, at the end of the internship journey, to provide hardware repeater demonstrator.
