This comprehensive book delves into the intricate development and design of a groundbreaking combined data and power management infrastructure for small satellites. The need for this new edition arose due to the remarkable transformation of the system, evolving from an academic prototype to one of the most advanced core avionics in modern aviation. As part of this evolution, numerous components have been upgraded to the latest technology generation, while diverse new components have been integrated to complement the enhanced design. Each element is presented in updated and newly authored chapters, ensuring a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the subject matter.
Recognized for its versatility, this modular infrastructure was chosen by the Swiss start-up ClearSpace SA for ESA's inaugural mission, ClearSpace-1, which aims to remove space debris. Furthermore, it serves as the foundation for the Thai national satellite development program and is increasingly adopted by universities across the globe for research studies.
The book comprehensively covers various aspects of the combined data and power management infrastructure, including system architecture, power distribution, thermal management, and fault tolerance. It provides detailed insights into the design considerations and challenges faced during the development process, highlighting the innovative solutions employed to ensure efficient and reliable operation.
Moreover, the book explores the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar panels and batteries, into the infrastructure to enhance sustainability and reduce reliance on traditional power sources. It discusses the challenges associated with energy storage and management, as well as the potential benefits of integrating these renewable sources into small satellite designs.
The authors, who are experts in their respective fields, bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. Their extensive research and practical insights provide valuable guidance for researchers, engineers, and policymakers involved in the development of small satellite systems.
In conclusion, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of small satellite technology. It offers a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of the development and design of combined data and power management infrastructure, providing valuable insights for researchers, engineers, and policymakers alike.
