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
