Development of partitioned Prototype Application (IMA-SP application development and software maintenance)

Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) is a concept developed for the aeronautics industry to manage the growth in functionality and efficiency required as the industry grows. Integrated Modular Avionics for Space (IMA-SP) is a spin-in of the corresponding concept for spacecraft avionics.

Developing a high-performance, but low cost satellite with very high resolution products would open the Earth Observation market to a new audience, creating a path for new applications and ultimately encouraging competitiveness.

These products are currently not often covered by the space industry and access is very limited. As such a new low cost satellite, with turnkey technology could open the market considerably. A new activity, with GSTP Element 2 and Spain, has developed a spacecraft to do just that.

Design of space hardware using a CDF like methodology (AMCDF)

The project aimed to establish a structured approach to an optimised part or component by applying Concurrent Design methods. It intended to incorporate all necessary disciplines and competencies that are required for a potential spacecraft part. Within the activity, advanced manufacturing included various novel techniques, not only additive manufacturing. It means that the Concurrent Design approach was developed for the engineering of units to be built with a broad range of advanced manufacturing technologies.

Lunar ISRU demonstration mission definition study segment 1

The contract was part of the broader framework of two ESA-led mission study teams performing parallel and independent activities to establish the mission concept, considering the ISRU payload (Segment 1), the delivery service (lander, Segment 2) and the communication service (Segment 3).

In this context the scope of the OHB Italia contract activities was related to defining the ISRU Payload.

3D Printing of Living Tissues for Space Exploration

Human exploratory missions to the Moon or Mars are widely considered as the next logical steps in human space exploration and, lately, settlement. Such space exploration or settlement activities involve humans spending long periods of time in space and, with increasing distance from Earth, no abort possibilities. Crews on such missions have to be self- sufficient, not only concerning food, drink and waste, but also with respect to medical treatment. Health issues are raised by the environmental conditions in space, such as the influence of altered gravity, radiation and isolation.

Conceiving a lunar base using 3D printing technologies.

Several studies have addressed the building of a lunar base either under ESA or other space agencies and entities. These studies have looked at conceptual designs, often of one specific element of the base, while most of the requirements are not adequately or not at all taken into consideration.

Future Concepts for Galileo Search-and-Rescue Space and Ground Segment (Parallel a)

MEOSAR is a system designed to locate emergency beacons anywhere on the Earth in order to coordinate rescue efforts for people, vehicles and facilities in distress. It works by evaluating the time and the frequency of the beacon signal upon arrival at the receiver. From these the relative distance and velocity of the sender can be calculated if sufficient data points have been collected. It is beneficial to receive the beacon on several different spacecraft to optimise the accuracy of the trace.

System impacts of propulsion Passivation

Space debris mitigation requirements specific to propulsion systems are scrutinized and compliance of OHB reference propulsion architectures is assessed. The risk of generating debris due to a failure in a propulsion system is assessed with a focus on the specific risk of a hypervelocity impact on a propulsion tank containing residuals.

The engineering activities, delta-qualifications or hardware development which can support the recommended propulsion passivation strategies are presented and prioritized.

Automatic Spacecraft Status Characterisation By Data Mining Mission History

The main purpose of this project, as mentioned in the SoW, was to analyse historical mission data and search for new features which would be useful in the telemetry checking, command verification and procedure writing process in the future.
Features of a signal (or parameter in this context) are defined as characteristics that can be measured or calculated over a given time window (such as mean, standard deviation or minimum of a signal).
