From sky to screen: improving file downlinking over error-prone, omni-directional links from the stratosphere

Long-duration stratospheric balloon missions must transmit large volumes of scientific and telemetry data over variable, omni-directional links that are prone to packet loss and bandwidth fluctuations. To address this, we developed a semi-autonomous file-downlink system for high-altitude astronomy missions such as Supe...
