ndia’s youth did us proud when ‘Swayam’ one of the

two satellites built by Indian students, was launched on

22nd June, 2016. ISRO has a student satellite program

where students from various engineering colleges present

their proposals. More than 100 students from all disciplines

participated and Mayuresh Khadse, then student at College of

Engineering Pune (COEP), worked on this project. Mayuresh,

currently a graduate trainee at TCE, was the Head of the

Power Sub-Systems on the project. His team’s work involved

solar panel boosting to a stable 5V output to charge the

batteries and then creating the next output of 3.3 volts for

entire system, load protection system, trip facilities, among

others.

Project Swayam is the smallest satellite measuring just 10cm x

10cm x 10cm. The main objective of the project was to launch

a communication satellite that would be passively stabilised,

so that the antenna is directed towards earth. This is the first

such project in India.
