Speaker

Mr Piero Gabellini (Space Engineering)

Description

The objective of the activity is to upgrade the current versions of HoTSPOT v2.x, HoTSPOT_SFPB and HoTSPOT_STAN and reengineer them in order to converge to a single version named HoTSPOT v3.x. Additional capabilities are also to be added (such as management of multi user terminals, optimized routing between HPAs and feeders, management of Array-Fed Reflector payload architectures, etc.) in order to extend the applications the code is able to cope with. A proper GUI is requested to easily interact with the tool in order to create the relevant system scenario and generate all input files needed by HoTSPOT automatically, as well as output results files for proper display and/or post-processing. The integration of HoTSPOT within the use of the ESA SCARLET Interface Framework is also addressed in order to allow the management of HoTSPOT from such environment.
