Pastore, G. Rubini, M. Marchetti","doi":"10.1109/METROAEROSPACE.2018.8453620","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/METROAEROSPACE.2018.8453620","url":null,"abstract":"Recently, the focus of Space Research has been set both on scientific and commercial fields. When planning a mission in space, it is necessary take into account the environment in which the instrumentations and the satellite that carries them will go to work. About 25% of operating anomalies are in fact due to the space environment that affects the control and management systems of the spacecraft and of the instrument. So it is mandatory to guarantee the compliance with the low earth orbit (LEO) space environment that degrades the performances and functionality of materials with phenomena such as atomic oxygen (AO), ultraviolet (UV) radiation, plasma, micrometeoroids and orbital debris (MMOD), as well as extreme thermal states given by orbital temperature cycles. In this frame the study of Outgassing properties and the hypervelocity impact resistance of space materials and in particular of Carbon based materials is of primary importance. A material with poor outgassing properties will degas volatile particles of itself and humidity with critical effects on electronic and optical devices. The resistance to high vacuum will assure the durability and the reliability of materials and structures. Very important is also the ability of a material or a structure to withstand impacts of MMOD. In this paper Outgassing and impact tests have been carried out on samples obtained from C/C prototypes for employment in re-entry systems and on samples of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP). The outgassing tests have been performed both on “naked” and coated samples per C/C kind and on CFRP. An Advanced Linear Electromagnetic Accelerator (ALEA), named railgun, has been developed in order to perform high energy impact test. The experimental results of impact test showed a damage limited to the Carbon based materials shell and could be adopted as solution to guarantee a safe mission and furthermore also that the railgun is suitable to perform impact testing of materials in the space debris energy range; at last, outgassing tests results show a complete compatibility of the materials under investigation with the standard.","PeriodicalId":142603,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126865522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transmitting complex – AFCS “satellite-GS” operates as a flexible software defined radio (SDR) complex. It is shown that optimal utilization of high quality feedback uplink GS-FT radically improves quality and spectral-energy efficiency of transmission over forward downlink FT-GS, as well simplifies architecture of FT and reduces its energy consumption. There are proposed verified in experiments and easily measured metrological characteristics permitting adequate and accurate on line evaluation of the performance of downlink FT-GS.

In this scenario, Time-Frequency (TF) representations are widely used for GW detection and measurements, as the time delays between two detected GWs can be estimated by suitably aligning the related TF maps. In this work we adopt the Phase Correlation method for TF maps alignment, and compare different TF representations (i.e., Continuous Q Transform, Wigner-Ville Distribution, Smoothed Wigner-Ville and Sparsified Wigner-Ville) in terms of time delay estimation performance.","PeriodicalId":142603,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130621915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, a specific hardware-in-the-Ioop test bed is designed to mimic the perception-action cycle necessary for the agile management of the available radio spectrum. Then the AWG synthesized waveform is measured with a Spectrum Analyzer (SA) in order to demonstrate its compliance with the spectral constraints forced by the design algorithm as well as its fidelity with the computer simulated theoretical counterpart.","PeriodicalId":142603,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130797188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MicroMED is an optical particle counter that has been selected to be part of the ExoMars 2020 mission as one of the sensors of the Russian “Dust Complex” suite and it has been designed to characterize dust in Martian atmosphere, measuring size distribution and concentration of airborne mineral grains. CFD simulations were performed in order to optimize the instrument sampling efficiency and its ability to correctly characterize dust grains in the 0.4-20 µm diameter range. The analysis allowed to derive the optimum environmental conditions for tests and operations on Mars and provided key information on how to optimize MicroMED's fluid dynamic design, improving the performances of the instrument.","PeriodicalId":142603,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122512196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
