Developing satellite flight software (FSW) presents considerable challenges, requiring rigorous methodologies to ensure both reliability and efficiency. In this paper, we explore the application of Model-Based Development (MBD) to the periodic operations within the Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) of the Alsat‑1B satellite. Our approach systematically models, simulates, and validates...
The increasing demand for commercial payloads has driven the development of innovative, high-performance control and data acquisition systems. In this context, the Instrument Control Unit (ICU) emerges as a key component for the efficient control and management of Electro-Optical payloads. Our research presents an advanced ICU architecture that leverages the computational power of the SAMRH71...
The Space Power System standard is an emerging standard for space power systems being developed by NASA and industry in both the USA and the UK [1]. This paper first introduces the Space Power System standard explaining the rationale behind the standard. It then outlines the architecture of the Space Power System and details its various functional components, the power modules, which include...
