The CANSAT design, a simple and small scale of a satellite, is an experience for preparing for the design of a Life cycle of the space project. In this paper, the process of design and construction of ARTA CanSat, which is participated in the scientific-exploratory class of international competition in CANSAT Iran, has been written. The operation scenario is that an automatic scanner system, lands after releasing from 300 meters above ground level with using a recovery subsystem (parachute), which is controlled its downfall and landing position by the parachute controller system. During the descent, the data is transmitted by the sensors and sent to the ground station. After touchdown, the Hotwire system's operates and separates the parachute from the Rover section; Then CanSat with the moving on the ground by using the simpler section embedded underneath the structure, performing excavation while moving to the target point. Throughout the mission, the health of the biological payload is preserved.

In this article by analyzing the TLE data of Navid satellite from IranUniversityofScienceand Technology the effects of these data on tracking operation of ground station has been studied. Then the prediction accuracy of satellite position, the error rate of antenna ground station, the error rate of satellite rise time and the sensitivity survey of these toward the variation of drag term () of TLE data has been investigated. The results show that the accuracy of TLE data, the intervals of updating them and the time elapsed the epoch related to TLE data directly effected on accuracy prediction of thesatellite position and atracking operation. In some cases such as the limitation of ground antenna beam, tracking satellite is not succeeded. Therefore it has been suggested that tracking operation of satellite is done by ground station and independent of the TLE data and using TLE data as a reserve state has been considered. In this case TLE data must be updated daily.
