Satellite Constellations - 2021 Industry Survey and Trends
[SSC21-XII-10] Satellite Constellations - 2021 Industry Survey and Trends Erik Kulu NewSpace Index, Nanosats Database, Kepler Communications [email protected] ABSTRACT Large satellite constellations are becoming reality. Starlink has launched over 1600 spacecraft in 2 years since the launch of the first batch, Planet has launched over 450, OneWeb more than 200, and counting. Every month new constellation projects are announced, some for novel applications. First part of the paper focuses on the industry survey of 251 commercial satellite constellations. Statistical overview of applications, form factors, statuses, manufacturers, founding years is presented including early stage and cancelled projects. Large number of commercial entities have launched at least one demonstrator satellite, but operational constellations have been much slower to follow. One reason could be that funding is commonly raised in stages and the sustainability of most business models remains to be proven. Second half of the paper examines constellations by selected applications and discusses trends in appli- cations, satellite masses, orbits and manufacturers over the past 5 years. Earliest applications challenged by NewSpace were AIS, Earth Observation, Internet of Things (IoT) and Broadband Internet. Recent years have seen diversification into majority of applications that have been planned or performed by governmental or military satellites, and beyond.

In standard satellite acquisitions, satellites can take years and billions of dollars to reach operational status. Should there be delays in schedule or on-orbit failures, gaps in data integral to US operations can be lost. -

Crawley† Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 DOI: 10.2514/1.A34385 In the early stages of maturity of a system built for a specific function, it is common for the solutions to lie in a broad architectural space, in which numerous concepts are being developed, built, and tested. As the product matures, certain concepts become more dominant. This pattern can currently be observed in the suborbital tourism industry, in which the obvious question is what system architecture will provide the best combination of cost and safety and in the long run become the dominant architecture. This paper addresses this question by defining a broad architectural space of thousands of possibilities and exploring it comprehensively. We identified 33 feasible architectures, 26 of which had not been proposed earlier. A genetic algorithm optimizes each architecture with respect to the launch mass (a proxy for cost) and operational safety. -

Thermal Analysis of the SMOG-1 Pocketqube Satellite
Applied Thermal Engineering 139 (2018) 506–513 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Applied Thermal Engineering journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/apthermeng Thermal analysis of the SMOG-1 PocketQube satellite T ⁎ Róbert Kovácsa,b, Viktor Józsaa, a Department of Energy Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, H-1111 Budapest, Műegyetem rkp. 3., Hungary b Department of Theoretical Physics, Wigner Research Centre for Physics, H-1121 Budapest, Konkoly-Thege Miklós út 29-33., Hungary HIGHLIGHTS • Thermal analysis of the SMOG-1 picosatellite is presented. • Results of a simple thermal network and finite element methods were compared. • The sensitive battery just fulfills all the requirements for continuous operation. • The thermal network model underpredicts the temperature due to its simplicity. • A simple thermal network is able to predict the temperature variations appropriately. ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: CubeSats have revolutionized the space industry in the past two decades. Its successor, the PocketQube class Picosatellite seems to be a lower size limit for a satellite which can operate continuously and can be received by radio Satellite amateur equipment. The present paper discusses the simulation of the thermal environment of the SMOG-1 Finite element method PocketQube satellite at low Earth orbit by both thermal network and finite element models. The major findings Thermal network of the analyses are the following. Even a single node per printed circuit board model can provide adequate Thermal analysis information about the thermal behavior without tuning the physical parameters. By applying a finite element Low Earth orbit model with few magnitudes more nodes, the predicted inner temperature increased as the losses were reduced in the radiation-dominant environment compared to the thermal network model. -
