MAIN PROJECTS IN THE SPACE SECTOR

  • “DEWI” (Dependable Electronics for Wireless Infrastructure) project, under the Artemis European Commission programme (2014 – 2017). Wireless sensor network for flying vehicles was developed by SpaceForest. Partners: Thales Alenia Space España and Gdańsk University of Technology
  • “Development and qualification of frequency generators” (PLDRO I/II) –  two projects for ESA with RUAG Space AB as a partner. The second project ended with the engineering qualified model of frequency generator in May 2018. In 2019 the device reached TRL 8.
  • “Development and qualification of dual redundant medium power master signal source” (MLO)  for satellite frequency converters. Project for ESA with RUAG Space AB as a partner will finish in December 2020
  • “X-Band Solid State Power Amplifier” (SSPA) – the first project for ESA finished with TRL 5 in December 2019. The lifetime of the continuation project should be 2 years, leading to development of a full Engineering Qualified Model (EQM) at TRL 7. The main partner in the project is Tesat Spacecom GmbH. The target application for SSPA are downstream transmitters for e.g. earth observation satellite constellations
  • “Fully digital, generic RF-Switch Control Electronic” – Project for ESA with Tesat Spacecom as a partner. The main goal of the project is to develop a main control unit of the RF switch (GSCU) controlled via CAN bus (Controller Area Network). Planned TRL 3 in August 2020
  • “Controllable and recoverable suborbital rocket with hybrid engine SF1000 based on eco-logical propellants- project co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund. Project duration: April 2018 – December 2023. The main objective of the project is to design and build first Polish suborbital rocket able to carry up to 50 kg of commercial payload to altitudes up to 150 km. The 10 meters rocket will be able to provide cost effective platform for micro-g environment researches
  • “WPT” (Wireless Power Transfer) – Internal proof of concept project for fully removing of power and communication wires from sensors networks, for satellite purposes.
