Description:
The implementation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) on small satellites is an emerging area of interest in the international space community, as it would allow reducing the cost of future SAR missions. In order to achieve SAR implementation on this type of platform, there is a need to adapt the technology. This project aims to analyze and design Attitude Control System (ACS) for SAR implementation on small satellites (CubeSats). In particular, tools will be developed to optimize ACS design for CubeSat-based SAR missions, and to analyze their performance. The development of Canadian expertise in this area will allow maintaining Canada's position as a leader in the field of SAR satellites.
