About this event

A satellite electrical power system (EPS) is responsible for more than 25% of all on-orbit spacecraft failures. EPS failures can degrade performance and even cause operation to cease, putting critical space missions in jeopardy. This course shows satellite teams how to catch those failures during bench testing. You will learn: 

 

  • The three EPS failure modes driving most LEO mission losses

  • How to accurately simulate multi-string solar array behavior

  • A practical approach to characterizing COTS batteries and solar cells under realistic load and thermal profiles

  • Scaling test architectures from your first engineering model to constellation production

Who should attend this event?


Satellite engineers working on power systems ranging from solar arrays to batteries and PCDUs. Satellite engineers or project managers testing system for performance and reliability
