Communication – TT&C Systems and Techniques
The Communication – TT&C systems and techniques
section is part of the RF Payload Systems division.
The section provides support to a wide range of ESA technical
programs (Telecommunications, Navigation, Deep Space exploration,
Earth Observation, Security) in the areas on communication systems.
The section is also active in development of telecommunication
standards in cooperation with European Industries and International
standardization bodies. The section also provides consultancies to
external customers (e.g. EC, Ses-Astra, Eutelsat, Inmarsat and
others).The section has performed pioneering work
in satellite on-board processing for both regenerative and bent-pipe
satellites, advanced
CDMA VSAT and mobile networks, multi-user
detection, high-speed modems for high spectral and power efficient
modulations, application of adaptive coding and modulation to
Ka-band, satellite UMTS pilot systems and system analysis tools.
The section has expertise in the areas of telemetry, tracking,
and command systems and techniques for spacecrafts targeting deep
space, Earth exploration, space operations and telecommunication. |
