| Abstract | The ground-satellite communications are expensive yet highly significant for the success of a space mission and to envisage its end-of-life by continuously monitoring its health and all sub-systems. One cost-effective possibility for honing skills is to use amateur satellite service and an online internet-to-orbit gateway. The ©gateway has a maximum range of tracking and detection of 22000 km and sensitivity down to 0.1 watts, capable enough to receive the faint satellites in even omni directional reception scenario. The gateway allows the connectivity of remote users involving in the processes like orbital control, communication control, real time simulations and data/ image processing and analysis. This paper details all above processes along with experimental results obtained by controlling it remotely, online reception of audio frequency signals of telemetry, housekeeping data and half-duplex communication through amateur satellites and images from NOAA weather satellites. We have involved post-grad students studying at Japan, USA, Austria and Australia. We analyzed the received data through a suite of free software and the results are enhanced with real-time Satellite Toolkit (STK) simulations. The exclusive ability of the gateway to act as a gateway between remote users (internet) and satellites (in orbit) makes the virtual ground station at user end more feasible for the long-term real-time nano/cubesats space operations and space outreach. The only requirement is broadband internet at user end. After the successful satellite tracking remotely, monitoring and downloading online and real-time data from many operational satellites, the gateway has proved reliable and capable enough to be used as a potential ground station for current and future university missions and a training platform for individuals pursuing space operations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
