    5 PROBA stands for PRoject for OnBoard Autonomy. The PROBA satellites are among the smallest spacecraft ever to be flown by ESA, but they are making a big impact in the field of space technology. PROBA-2 is the second of the series, building on nearly eight years of successful PROBA-1 experience.

    382382For accurate orbital analysis it is essential that full information is available in order that a model of the 3-dimensional position of the satellite centre of mass may be referred to the location in space at which the laser range measurements are made. To achieve this, the 3-D location of the LRA phase centre must be specified in a satellite fixed reference frame with respect to the satellite's mass centre. In practice this means that the following parameters must be available at mm accuracy or better.
     
    418418Subsequently, Edisoft has reached an agreement with OAR to implement an RTEMS maintenance centre (see related link) in Europe. Edisoft has complemented the validation and the toolset associated with RTEMS for the specific needs of the European space industry. Gaisler Research also provides services based around RTEMS on ERC32 and Leon.

    420 RTEMS has already been used in several space applications, in particular FedSat (a scientific Research and Development microsatellite), the Surrey's Solid State Data Recorder (a component used in the Disaster Monitoring Constellation), ChipSat (a System-on-Chip architecture), the Electra UHF antenna of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and in the Galileo GIOVE-A and Herschel-Planck satellites.

    569569Beyond the technology demonstration through the PROBA program, it is also noted that the AOCS software technology developed in the course of this program is now the baseline of the AOCS of a major operational mission of the GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) program: Sentinel-3. NGC Aerospace Ltd (NGC) of Sherbrooke, (Québec), Canada was responsible for the design, implementation and validation of the autonomous GNC (Guidance, Navigation and Control) algorithms implemented as part of the AOCS software of PROBA-1 and PROBA-2. NGC has the same responsibilities for the PROBA-V mission (Ref. 16).

    571 EPS (Electric Power Subsystem): The PVA (Photo-Voltaic Array) uses GaAs triple junction cells with an of efficiency of 28%. To obtain the operating voltage of 31.5 V, 18 cells are included in each string in series with a blocking diode. The PVA consists of a total of 25 solar strings taken into account the loss of one string on the most contributing PVA panel. The average solar string power under EOL conditions (summer solstice and T = 40°C) yields 12.8 W. The maximal incoming power at EOL during an orbit is 144 W. The energy budget for PROBA-V is derived for a bus power consumption of 140 W assuming a worst case day in the summer and while not taken into account the effect of albedo. A worst case power budget analysis indicated a maximum capacity discharge of 1.66 Ah. Use of a Li-ion battery. The battery cells provide a capacity of 1.5 Ah per string. The PROBA-V battery is sized to 12 Ah taking into account capacity fading and loss of a string.
