Over the past years, the tendency to capture huge volumes of historical data describing process operations together with complex experimental datasets has become a reality. In this regard, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and in particular machine learning (ML) for data mining addresses the question of which is the best way to use this historical data to discover regularities and to facilitate future decisions.

The proposed activity will focus on the implementation of the company?s compression technology for high-resolution Earth Observation systems. The tight coupling between the physical models of image acquisition and information theory has allowed the company?s technology to achieve outstanding performance in terms of compression ratio, throughput, power consumption and FPGA resource utilization.

Contrary to a traditional system, in which input A should provide expected results B, an adaptive and evolving system needs different acceptance criteria.
Besides this, the traditional process for doing the verification and validation is not sufficient anymore and needs rethinking. For example; it might no longer be possible to run-through all the possible test-scenarios before launch.

The part component family is represented by the SPLVDS032RH and SPLVDS031RH, which are radiation hardened 400 Mbps Quad LVDS line receiver and line driver, correspondingly, and the SPLVDS104RH, which is a radiation hardened 800 Mbps 1:4 LVDS Fanout buffer. All these 3 components are optimised for high-speed, low power, low noise transmission over controlled impedance transmission media (e.g. cables, printed circuit board traces, backplanes).

In the previous de-risk activity, the feasibility of developing a fuel cell system based on spin-in from terrestrial solutions for different space applications was confirmed. Regenerative fuel cell systems can outperform classic Li-Ion batteries in terms of specific energy (Wh/kg) especially for large systems, e.g. for lunar stations, landers or rovers. The identification of suitable components and suppliers was done along with a preliminary design of the breadboard in the previous activity.

GaN-based devices are becoming a key technology for millimeter-wave applications. Because of outstanding material properties, recent advances in GaN device designs provided a sharp increase in performances including high power, high efficiency, reliability, linearity, and compact size. These capabilities are ideally suited for numerous millimeter-wave power applications such as wireless networks and PAs MMIC for Q-band frequency and beyond.
