In-orbit performance verification
Ensure the performance of your satellite network in-orbit
Satellite technology plays a key role in facilitating broadcast TV, GPS, mobile and general communication systems. As such, satellite manufacturers and operators are tasked with guaranteeing peak payload performance.
In-orbit testing serves as a critical step for maintaining the requisite performance levels across diverse systems. It typically covers:
- Satellite system performance verification and monitoring
- Checking satellite health and safety status
- In-orbit calibration of parabolic and electronically steerable antennas
- Link-quality monitoring
Automated in-orbit test systems perform fast and reliable post-launch payload testing. It is possible to automate all typical post-launch measurements, such as:
- Overall link MER/EVM measurements
- Long distance group delay measurements
- Customer-specific test requirements
With an in-orbit test system, operators can be certain that their satellite communications systems operate at the highest level of performance.
