I have gone through the Start up guide for the participating students and I can see that writing the proposal is quite a rigorous process in this case.</div>
<div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">Hence, I would like to pitch my project idea to you in a couple sentences. It is a humble request to you to tell me if this idea is eligible for a proposal or if it is completely off the topic:</div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><b>We, at the Satellite Technology Laboratory, are working on Chip-scale satellites.</b></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">
<b>At this juncture, we have a TI CC430 Microcontroller that I need to program so that it can actively communicate with the ground station i.e. send encoded data and be decoded/filtered at the ground station. We have a USRP at the Lab to be our ground station for testing purposes. </b></div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><b>I need to write the code that will enable the CC430 to receive data from the GPS chip, process it and send it down to the ground station.</b></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">
<br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">Please let me know if the idea is worth writing a proposal for. </div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">Please feel free to be honest. Any kind of suggestion/criticism is welcome.</div>

students to submit proposals, but your project has a MUCH higher<br>
chance to be accepted if you get the proposal up early for reviewing<br>
and resubmitting. You can update your proposal as many times as you<br>
like until the deadline.<br>
