Book excerpt: Space-based observations have transformed our understanding of Earth, its environment, the solar system and the universe at large. During past decades, driven by increasingly advanced science questions, space observatories have become more sophisticated and more complex, with costs often growing to billions of dollars. Although these kinds of ever-more-sophisticated missions will continue into the future, small satellites, ranging in mass between 500 kg to 0.1 kg, are gaining momentum as an additional means to address targeted science questions in a rapid, and possibly more affordable, manner. Within the category of small satellites, CubeSats have emerged as a space-platform defined in terms of (10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm)- sized cubic units of approximately 1.3 kg each called "U's." Historically, CubeSats were developed as training projects to expose students to the challenges of real-world engineering practices and system design. Yet, their use has rapidly spread within academia, industry, and government agencies both nationally and internationally. In particular, CubeSats have caught the attention of parts of the U.S. space science community, which sees this platform, despite its inherent constraints, as a way to affordably access space and perform unique measurements of scientific value. The first science results from such CubeSats have only recently become available; however, questions remain regarding the scientific potential and technological promise of CubeSats in the future. Achieving Science with CubeSats reviews the current state of the scientific potential and technological promise of CubeSats. This report focuses on the platform's promise to obtain high- priority science data, as defined in recent decadal surveys in astronomy and astrophysics, Earth science and applications from space, planetary science, and solar and space physics (heliophysics); the science priorities identified in the 2014 NASA Science Plan; and the potential for CubeSats to advance biology and microgravity research. It provides a list of sample science goals for CubeSats, many of which address targeted science, often in coordination with other spacecraft, or use "sacrificial," or high-risk, orbits that lead to the demise of the satellite after critical data have been collected. Other goals relate to the use of CubeSats as constellations or swarms deploying tens to hundreds of CubeSats that function as one distributed array of measurements.

This book was released on 2022-04-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis investigates the use of GNSS receivers on 1U CubeSats, using the example of BEESAT-4 and BEESAT-9. The integration of such a device on satellites enables highly precise time synchronization, position acquisition and orbit determination and prediction The application fields that depend on an accurate attitude control and orbit determination system and can also be processed by CubeSats are highlighted. Therefore the state of the art of GNSS receivers is described, which are suitable for the use on satellites and could be integrated into 1U CubeSats. Further on it is investigated which subsystems of a small satellite are particularly affected and what the special challenges are to realize a precise positioning with a GNSS receiver. In addition, some developments are presented that have significantly increased the performance of 1U CubeSats in recent years. The system concept of BEESAT satellites is introduced and the evolution of the payload board including the use of the latest sensor technologies for attitude control is described. It is shown how the verification of the satellite's subsystems was performed on the ground, with the focus on testing and simulating the attitude control and the GNSS receiver. The necessary integration steps, the calibration and environmental test campaign are discussed. Both satellites were successfully operated and the results of the on-orbit experiments are presented. It is shown how a three-axis stabilized attitude control was first verified on BEESAT-4 and then a GNSS receiver was successfully operated on BEESAT-9 for more than one year. In addition, the inter-satellite link between BEESAT-4 and BIROS will be analyzed, since it is essential for the relative navigation of satellites. The acquired navigation data was sent to the ground and the identification of BEESAT-9 was carried out using this data. A qualitative analysis of the orbital elements (TLE) of BEESAT-9 was performed systematically due to a daily operation of the GNSS receiver. Furthermore, it was investigated how a small GNSS antenna affects the received signal strength from GNSS satellites and whether this antenna or its amplifier degrades over time. Additionally, an orbit determination and propagation based on the navigation data could be performed and the results are evaluated. The analyzed questions allow a statement about the continuous use of GNSS receivers on 1U CubeSats and if it is necessary to achieve the mission objectives. Diese Arbeit untersucht den Einsatz von GNSS-Empfängern auf 1U CubeSats am Beispiel von BEESAT-4 und BEESAT-9. Das Integrieren einer solchen Komponente auf Satelliten ermöglicht eine hochgenaue Zeitsynchronisation, Positions- und Orbitbestimmung sowie deren Vorhersage Es werden die Anwendungsfelder beleuchtet, die auf ein akkurates Lageregelungs- und Orbitbestimmungssystem angewiesen sind und außerdem auch von CubeSats bearbeitet werden können. Dazu wird der Stand der Technik von GNSS-Empfängern beschrieben, die für den Einsatz auf Satelliten geeignet sind und von ihren Eigenschaften auch auf 1U CubeSats integriert werden könnten. Weitergehend wird untersucht, welche Subsysteme eines Kleinstsatelliten besonders betroffen sind und was die speziellen Herausforderungen sind, um eine präzise Positionsbestimmung mithilfe eines GNSS-Empfängers zu realisieren. Dazu werden auch einige Entwicklungen vorgestellt, die in den letzten Jahren die Leistungsfähigkeit von 1U CubeSats signifikant erhöht haben. Das Systemkonzept der BEESAT Satelliten wird eingeführt und die Evolution der Nutzlastplatine inklusive der Verwendung der jeweils neuesten Sensortechnologien für die Lageregelung beschrieben. Es wird gezeigt wie die Verifikation der Subsysteme des Satelliten am Boden erfolgte, wobei der Fokus auf dem Testen und Simulieren der Lageregelung und dem GNSS-Empfänger liegt. Dazu werden die notwendigen Integrationsschritte, die Kalibrations- und die Umwelttestkampagne diskutiert. Beide Satelliten wurden erfolgreich betrieben und die Ergebnisse der on-orbit Experimente werden vorgestellt. Es wird gezeigt wie zunächst eine dreiachsenstabilisierte Lageregelung auf BEESAT-4 verifiziert und anschließend auf BEESAT-9 über mehr als ein Jahr ein GNSS-Empfänger erfolgreich betrieben wurde. Zusätzlich wird der Intersatelliten Link zwischen BEESAT-4 und BIROS analysiert, da dieser für die Relativnavigation von Satelliten essentiell ist. Die akquirierten Navigationsdaten wurden zum Boden gesendet und die Identifizierung von BEESAT-9 erfolgte mithilfe dieser Daten. Eine qualitative Analyse der Orbitelemente (TLE) von BEESAT-9 konnte systematisch durchgeführt werden durch einen täglichen Einsatz des GNSS-Empfängers. Weiterhin wurde erforscht wie sich eine kleine GNSS-Antenne auf die empfangenen Signalstärken der GNSS Satelliten auswirkt und ob diese Antenne oder ihr Verstärker mit der Zeit degradieren. Zusätzlich konnte eine Orbitbestimmung und -propagation auf Basis der Navigationsdaten durchgeführt und die Ergebnisse ausgewertet werden. Die analysierten Fragestellungen erlauben eine Aussage über den durchgängigen Einsatz von GNSS-Empfängern auf 1U CubeSats und ob dieser notwendig ist um die Missionsziele zu erreichen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, small satellites have taken the space industry by storm. Their short development times, low cost, significant miniaturisation, standardisation and commercial availability have truly revolutionised the space industry. They make space accessible to non-professionals and on an individual level. This book is the first to explore the status of small satellites vis-à-vis international space law, examining which provisions are applicable and what kind of legal issues the traditional definitions pose when considering novel small satellites activities. The author sheds clear light on current regulatory challenges raised by the commercial and research activities of small satellites as well as by governmental and military applications. She covers the legal implications in such aspects of the small satellites revolution as the following: liability for damage caused or suffered by small satellites; State responsibility for non-governmental space activities employing small satellites; registration of space objects; launch practices; online availability of components and launch slots; the connection between small satellites and space debris; the role of space insurance; and legal challenges posed by large constellations of small satellites. In the course of the description and analysis, the author provides case studies showing how these challenges can be dealt with, offers deeply informed insights on emerging trends and future developments and indicates which jurisdictions may be most favourable to small satellite activities. The small satellites market is booming, and both States and industry are in need of guidance relating to the regulatory situation. Accordingly, this book will help stakeholders in the industry – universities, business entities and individuals, as well as non-commercial entities engaged in small satellites operations – understand what kind of regulatory challenges exist and what should be done in order to solve these challenges in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unparalleled learning tool and guide to error correction coding Error correction coding techniques allow the detection and correction of errors occurring during the transmission of data in digital communication systems. These techniques are nearly universally employed in modern communication systems, and are thus an important component of the modern information economy. Error Correction Coding: Mathematical Methods and Algorithms provides a comprehensive introduction to both the theoretical and practical aspects of error correction coding, with a presentation suitable for a wide variety of audiences, including graduate students in electrical engineering, mathematics, or computer science. The pedagogy is arranged so that the mathematical concepts are presented incrementally, followed immediately by applications to coding. A large number of exercises expand and deepen students' understanding. A unique feature of the book is a set of programming laboratories, supplemented with over 250 programs and functions on an associated Web site, which provides hands-on experience and a better understanding of the material. These laboratories lead students through the implementation and evaluation of Hamming codes, CRC codes, BCH and R-S codes, convolutional codes, turbo codes, and LDPC codes. This text offers both "classical" coding theory-such as Hamming, BCH, Reed-Solomon, Reed-Muller, and convolutional codes-as well as modern codes and decoding methods, including turbo codes, LDPC codes, repeat-accumulate codes, space time codes, factor graphs, soft-decision decoding, Guruswami-Sudan decoding, EXIT charts, and iterative decoding. Theoretical complements on performance and bounds are presented. Coding is also put into its communications and information theoretic context and connections are drawn to public key cryptosystems. Ideal as a classroom resource and a professional reference, this thorough guide will benefit electrical and computer engineers, mathematicians, students, researchers, and scientists.
