Solar Cell Interconnector Design Optimization for Surviving Harsh Fatigue Environments
Recent extended LEO qualification programs revealed marginalities heritage interconnect design. In order to overcome this issue new designs have to be developed and verified. Although nominal loop design already demonstrated to be suitable for several mission environment, it is also evident that when operated outside the nominal design range could fail earlier than expected.
 
The activity will include analysis and experimental verification of the PVA and in particular of the solar cell interconnnector.

Remote sensing for marine litter – Early Technology Development Scheme (REACT)

The main objectives of the REACT project were to:
▪ Assess how plastic litter can be detected and quantified with current and future remote sensing tools;
▪ Develop adaptive indices insensible to biases induced by sunglint on satellite radiometric products and indicate the constraints of current satellite missions under various atmospheric and illumination conditions;

OMAR – On orbit manufactured spacecraft

The objective of this activity is to assess the system level and design impacts of optimising a satellite design for on-orbit manufacturing and assembly, as well as preparing it to be refurbished, reused or recycled on orbit afterwards, and to identify the technologies needed.

Thales Alenia Space
Mars Surface Platform Capabilities

The objective of this study was to help define how to maintain and further develop European access to the surface of Mars, the major destination for European exploration, following the most recent approved and developed (or currently in development) missions (ExoMars 2016, ExoMars RSP).

Small Satellite Missions to Mars – S2M2

The focus of this study was the system-level assessment of potential small mission architectures that could operate at Mars in the 2030s, after or potentially in parallel with MSR mission.

In particular two cases were evaluated:

  • Mission 1: Mars Communications Constellation (MCC), for supporting assets on the surface and providing science
  • Mission 2: Mars Science Orbiter (MSO), a science-driven mission, remote sensing

WASDI - Web-based ASI Social SDI (Spatial Data Infrastructure)

In-cloud image processing used for civil protection and employed by World Bank.

An in-cloud image processing software built by a GSTP Element 1 activity with Italy has already been employed by the World Bank. Currently, the tools available on the market to view, edit and process Earth Observation images are mostly desktop-based. But, as high performance computing progresses, there is more and more need for Earth Observation image processing to be moved onto the cloud, to minimise data transfer.

Miniaturised Solar Array Drive Assembly for 6U/12U CUBESAT
Current trend in CUBESAT design is towards increased complexity, volume and power consumption. In this roadmap, a miniaturised SADA would be an enabling technology for various applications and mission designs e.g. LEO constellations with high ?V deployment/End-of-Life deorbiting capabilities, with high power RF payloads for EO and telecom, small interplanetary missions using miniaturised electric propulsion.

High Power GaN C-band Transmit/Receive Module Demonstrator
Next generation of C-band SAR utilising Digital Beam Forming (DBF) techniques allow significant coverage improvements at high resolution as confirmed in several ESA studies in the field. Several TRP studies in the field of Digital Beam Forming (DBF) have confirmed the feasibility to achieve 400km swath width at 5m x 5m resolution, while Sentinel-1 achieves currently 80km at 5m x 5m resolution. The DBF technological elements are currently under development in the GSTP activity ?Integrated Tile Demonstrator (ITD)? based on extended Sentinel 1 requirements.

Using GNSS and Big Data Techniques to improve safety in critical maritime operations

This project was intended to contribute to the implementation of the e-navigation concept (as defined by IMO, Ref. 2.2.6), with primary focus on the navigation in restricted waters, such as harbours, lagoons or regions where the traffic congestion can create conditions for accidents or inefficient operations.
