- Firm plans for two mission
- HSI mission
- The imager is quite large now, and we're looking at a 6U platform
- Although we haven't ruled out the 3U
- SDR mission
- One satellite may carry more than one payload
- Power budget
- 6U provides a lot of benefits when it comes to power budgeting
- Robert - also systems engineering
- First launch in Q1 2020, second launch in later 2020
- Difficult to learn anything between the two launches
- The price list is ok - but we need to know more about the things surrounding it
- We want to perform the system integration ourselves, but maybe not on our premises. We also want to do the operations ourselves
- Training for this + workshops available
- Support during integration - package for hours or paid-by-the-hour?
- If we want to do the integration ourselves, we need some training and then we can carry out the integration ourselves
- A complete EM of the satellite + testbed should be sufficient to learn the integration process
- The testbed supports hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Workshop-based exercise. Can also be a series of workshops
- Can also deliver an integrated standard satellite
- Morten will provide a ballpark figure for this
- Recommended for the time perspective
- In their work with a university they had a program of workshops at the university where the students where guided through integration (1U satellite ended up with 5 workshops. From 1 day to 1 week duration)
- About 15 weeks delivery time for the products
- Plus some time for integration
- Attitude control system
- Want as accurate ACS as possible, as well as being able to do research on it
- They have a very busy ADCS team at the moment, and cannot at present allocate people to have dedicated support for this task
- Will help us update the algorithms and such, but not support the development of the algorithms
- No difference between the license models except for the price. Multi-user license, only tied to mission
- Operation - they usually support the commissioning phase (from 2-4 weeks)
- Will also have training sessions for the operations of the satellite and their tools
- We could also be a part of the commissioning phase
- We should register the satellites ourselves
- Launch
- Ride-share solution (not dedicated launch) - 9 months before launch date the contract shall be in place
- We can write specifications for the launch
- 80-90 hours (they do the RFI/RFQ ++ business)
- They do a trade-off analysis, and then we choose, and then they do the negotiations and contract and such
- They can also help us arrange a launcher insurance if necessary
- They can also run the launch part from their side - about 100 hours
- We must ensure the qualification testing
- Deployer EM - to do a fit-check test with the EM model that we have
- Or they can help us with it
- Flight model
- Can either do it ourselves
- Or they can do it - most convenient
- There are some safety packages that we must comply to
- Phases
- Engineering model and training
- Flight model + testing + launch
