Objectives
The objective of this project is to open the MCC to flexible payloads
Challenges
Main challenge was to review software architecture and look and feel in a very short time, in order to be ready for the first project in due time.
Next challenge was to find the best technical design to maximise multi-spot payload capacity, as for example, modelling accurately frequency reuse impairment.
System Architecture
The MCC is composed of several elements (cf. figure below):
– PTM
– PCM
– CSM
– IOT
– AJM
Plan
The study was divided in two phases.
Phase 1: Development of MCC NG V1 including multi-spot antennas
Phase 2: Development of MCC NG V2 including Digital Transparent Processor and Multi Port Amplifier.


Current Status
The project is completed
