Antennas for CubeSat Communication

CubeSats are a type of small satellites (< 500 kg) that weigh several kilograms and consist of multiple Units (U) measuring 100 × 100 × 113.5 mm3. CubeSats emerged as a low-cost alternative to conventional large satellites, and have since demonstrated capa ...

X-ray pulsar-based GNC system for formation flying in high Earth orbits

Volker Gass, Camille Sébastien Pirat

In this paper, comprehensive pulsar-based Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC) system is designed and applied to satellites formation flying. The complete autonomy of the X-ray pulsar navigation technology provides both absolute and relative positioning ...

Cost-effective dual-polarised leaky-wave antennas enabled by three-dimensional printing

Juan Ramon Mosig, Emile Jacques de Rijk, Tomislav Debogovic, Maria Garcia Vigueras, Esteban Menargues Gomez

This study proposes a compact dual-polarised directive radiator whose complex prototyping is enabled by additive manufacturing. In addition to monolithic implementation, stereolitography followed by metal coating, it also provides high radio-frequency perf ...

Large Hybrid High Precision MEMS Mirrors

Dara Zaman Bayat

This thesis presents the design and microfabrication technology of a tip-tilt, 2 degree of freedom "mirror system" made out of Silicon On Insulator (SOI) wafers with two movable mirrors that have diameter of 10 mm. The system was intended for precise beam ...

Modeling the satellite placement problem as a network flow problem with one side constraint

Thomas Liebling

The placement of telecommunication satellites in the geostationary orbit (GSO) gives rise to NP-hard optimization problems usually approached with iterative neighborhood (possibly tabu) search schemes. A typical iteration thereof consist in fixing an order ...
