The GSP study "New Microwave Sampling Concepts for TTC architecture" has shown that the electro-photonic sampling technology is capable of sampling signals up to Ka band. Whereas standard sampling technologies are still limited up to 20 ghz. The same electro-photonic technology can be used in the ground stations receivers (using microwave subsampling) or in the transmitter (signal oversampling). The electro-photonic device is associated with high performance ADC , DAC and FPGA and will be integrated in a transmitter and receiver front end.

The use of Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) components is and will always be an option to achieve space system performances that cannot be achieved with available space qualified components. For such components that are not latchup proof by design the use of protection circuitry is essential.

With the growing trend of industrial digitalization, Manufacturing, Assembly, Integration and Testing (MAIT) processes rely ever more in digital files and network connectivity. For In the advanced manufacturing field, Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a clear example of this digitalization. In AM, from design to the final product the information is processed and exchanged via computer files and network connection, allowing a freedom of access and utilization of the data.

FPGA are increasingly being used to implement complex and critical functions on-board satellites at both platform and payload level, for a diverse range of applications, including: micro-controller processors, data compression, image data processing and others. ;;The qualification of these programmed devices for use in space is based on an exhaustive Verification and Validation process that attempts to exercise a large set of Test Vectors to ensure that the device functionality, error handling and performance are correct.

A number of AR/VR projects have been implemented so far within ESA. The main focus has been on the application of AR/VR/MR to human and robotic operations as well as teleoperations/ maintenance tasks and lately on Space Safety use cases. With an increasing volume of information being represented on AR/VR/MR applications, especially for use cases involving visualisation of large datasets (e.g. scientific data) and Big Data, choosing the right approach is critical to meet performance limitations and offer an intriguing experience with greater fidelity without overwhelming the user.
