III. Project DescriptionThe project was to create a transmission system for an analog video transmission on the UHF 70cm amateur radio band. An off-the-shelf video transmitter was adapted in conjunction withseveral versions of a 70 cm ground plane antenna and a video switching circuit in order toproduce the desired video transmission. The harsh, near-space environment introduced manyproblems and engineering walls in which needed to be overcome

Problem-based learning has been defined as minds-on, hands-on,focused, experiential learning (Wilkerson & Gijselaers, 1996). A problem-based curriculum issignificantly different from the traditional discipline centered curriculum (Woods, 1994).Instructors are considered to serve as problem solving colleagues assigned

A multidisciplinary approach to engineering designis valuable in that it asks that students make certain that, “…advances in performance,…technology, or discipline(s), must be much more highly integrated than in the past” [2].
