Resistance To Satellite Failures Of Leo Communication Systems, Thomas Wolf, Jean-Jacques De Ridder
Small Satellite Conference
This paper presents a satellite failure analysis for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations with continuous global coverage. Worst case failure configurations are identified for polar orbit constellations and the coverage performance deterioration 'is evaluated by computer simulations. Then, the probability of having a number of satellite failures in a given constellation is evaluated as a function of satellite reliability. It is shown that the probability of occurrence of a worst case failure configuration is very low, and that the most probable configuration is a uniform distribution of the defective satellites. As a consequence, the maximum tolerable number of satellite failures …

Low-Cost Quick-Look Radiation Testing Of Electronic Components For The Mars Observer Camera, S.M. Brylow, T.A. Soulanille
Small Satellite Conference
The development of modern electronics has far outstripped the inventory of components for which radiation tolerance has been determined and published. New component characteristics require a more integrated approach to radiation tolerance in system design. The Mars Observer Camera performance requirements could not be met with a design restricted to components of established radiation hardness. A balanced approach that intimately involved radiation effects in the system design process was required. This included low-cost, quick turnaround testing of total ionizing dose and heavy ion induced single event phenomena of upset and latchup. The results were used to inform the system design, …
