EPDP stands for the Electric Propulsion Diagnostic Package, which is an instrument ;consisting of an EBox and 3 sensors for measuring plasma parameters and effects generated by modern Hall-Effect thrusters, e. g., the HEMPT.
To verify simulations and estimations concerning erosion of the solar cell array interconnects resulting from the HEMPT and HET plasma for the first time an Erosion Sensor (ES) is planned to be built for live in-orbit measurements.

The proposed activity follows the developments of GReCo4 GNSS receiver ASIC (2010-2014) and the Quabanatu (Quad Band Navigation Tuner and Integrated Receiver Module) front end RFIC (2016-2019), performed previously under GSTP Element 2. These technologies equip today all OEM modules and products produced by the company.

Composite and adhesive resin systems form a cornerstone for the manufacture of any modern spacecraft however both the manufacturing and procurement processes are often limited by the pot and/or shelf life of the prepreg/resin materials. A longer shelf life could mean a reduction of the amount of scrappage which occurs from any typical spacecraft composite system manufacturing line. Typically, it can be necessary to scrap and re-procure significant quantities of unused prepreg or resin materials simply because the shelf life is shorter than any recurrent manufacturing.

The basic element of the satellite subsystem is the on-board computer, which usually consists of standard elements such as: processor, memory, dedicated FPGAs and input/output interfaces. The on-board computer is responsible for executing the software that accomplishes the mission's objectives. In accordance with the ESA requirements, the software consists of at least two layers: boot and application software.

Combining all the features in a position encoder such as high-resolution, absolute, compact, high-speed is a challenge today. An optical absolute position encoder technology has the potential to combine all these attractive features. Nanometric resolution can be established using dedicated optical sensor, a transmissive scale, LED illumination, without the need for optics (shadow-imaging). Optic-less shadowimaging permits compact design and major cost reduction.
