CubeSat Development for Identification of Space Debris
Público DepositedThis project presents the design and analysis of a 12U CubeSat that could be used to detect orbital debris. The CubeSat has a 700 km sun-synchronous orbit and 98.19° inclination with the Collapsible Space Telescope as the payload. The mechanical subsystem analyzed the structure and layout of the satellite, managing the volume and mass constraints. Analysis was also done for equal weight distribution. The propulsion subsystem selected Busek’s BGT-X5 thruster for the mission. Orbital analysis was done to understand the lifetime of the system and analyze station-keeping maneuvers. The power subsystem managed the power budget of each subsystem, ensuring solar panels and batteries would generate enough power for the components. This report also discusses an ADC Testbed and work done to it.
