Course Contents:
Based on the course „Foundations of Space Systems“, this lecture will introduce into structures and functions of space stations as well as into space operations and utilisation. Typical subsystem functions such as power systems, attitude and orbit control systems, thermal control systems, data handling and communication systems will be presented in a systematic manner, together with the respective implementation in an engineering design. Another focus will be on processes and systems needed to operate and exploit space systems. Special emphasis will be given on conceptual design methods for all key functions in context of early design phases.
On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
- Reflect the structure of a space system with the typical break-down into subsystems.
- Explain the interaction of system elements at sytem level together with the respective engineering solutions.
- Analyse processes and systems needed to operate and exploit space systems.
- Design of key subsystems of space systems in early design phases.
