FI EFFICIENCY / SPACECRAFT
Spacecraft computers.
Leave more room for mission work.
We study how to process and handle mission data within a spacecraft’s power, heat and timing limits.
Design study for orbital computing
Design details
For teams developing spacecraft computers and payload data systems.
What the study covers.
- Power use and heat rejection in orbit
- Fault recovery and saved state
- Required outputs and deadlines
Heat, cooling and size
HEAT & COOLING
0.213916 mW lower reference input power
Spacecraft payload telemetry reduction · 100 modeled jobs/s. At this study’s main operating point, heat falls by the input-power saving when energy leaving in forms other than heat and changes in stored energy match.
