New missions and advanced development paradigms lead to compress schedules while minimising costs. When applied to Avionics and on-board data handling in particular, these objectives can be attained with more compact units integrating more functions. This introductory presentation will outline challenges we are confronted to and establish a list of contributions the day's sessions are expected...

In the past 10 years, Thales Alenia Space has developed the three major commercial constellations: GLOBALSTAR2, O3b and IRIDIUM NEXT representing 125 spacecraft on LEO and MEO orbits. Each development has required Avionics enhancement in order to meet the objectives of recurrent cost, radiation environment, in-flight autonomy, or high rate production. Further enhancements of the avionics are...
