Proxima

internet of Things (IoT) telecommunication program from Fleet Space Technologies, Australia. A constellation of over 100 nanosatellites is planned.

The Proxima 1 and 2 satellites are a pair of identical 1.5 U CubeSats designed and built by Fleet. The satellites will mark the first commercial tests of Fleet's software-defined radios, enabling it to transmit data efficiently across both S-band and L-band frequencies in space.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has licensed Fleet to perform satellite telemetry, tracking, and command, and payload data reception across S-band and L-band frequencies. The launches of Proxima I and II also allows Fleet to test longwave and shortwave band frequencies.

First 2 satellites operate in L- and S-band
