The aerospace industry has developed a cloud-based satellite control station
November 3, 2021
The station will be unveiled at the Arab Air Show in Dubai. The technology disconnects the operators 'dependence on a single reception antenna and on the satellite' "suit times". Allows you to send and receive information and instructions from any antenna available in the world
The Aerospace Industry (IAI) has announced the completion of the development of a Blue Sphere satellite command and control station, based on a new concept of a cloud-based virtual control station. Operating the station using the cloud increases the availability of the satellite and frees the operators from dependence on the "suit times" of the satellite over the satellite station antenna (satellite passing time). The satellite can transmit the information to any available satellite ground station over which it passes, anywhere in the world, and from there the information reaches directly to the cloud.
The satellite can transmit the information collected through it to a cloud and thus allow the ground station to "transfer" or "pull" the information instantly and independently of reception stations located in different regions of the earth. This is a unique concept formulated by the company, which was developed in a rapid procedure at the IAI Innovation Center, in collaboration with the international aerospace accelerator Starburst.
IAI Space Manager Shlomi Sudri said the Blue Sphere system makes the satellites available 24/7. "The concept has been proven and we are currently developing an advanced version of the ground station for our customers around the world."
New type of mini-satellite communication
The virtual control station will be unveiled later this month at the Arab Air Show in Dubai on November 14-18, 2021. Last week, the aerospace industry at the Space Congress in Dubai unveiled the new Mini-Communication-Satellite - MCS. The MCS satellite includes a digital communications platform and software architecture that allow applications to be loaded from the ground into space during their stay in space, in order to change the mission according to the changing communication needs.

The satellite is designed to operate for 14 years. It weighs 650 kg at launch and includes a communications bag weighing about 200 kg. Due to its relatively low weight, the satellite is adapted for launch in combination with other satellites and thus significantly reduces the cost of launch. According to Sudri, the satellite provides "high-speed space technology for countries and communications operators that do not need a large communications satellite. The MCS mini-satellite is a new niche in the world of communications satellites."
The satellite is based on capabilities developed for the "Dror 1" project. At the beginning of 2020, the Israeli government asked IAI to develop and build the Dror 1 satellite so that it would be the next communications satellite of the State of Israel. IAI's Missile and Space Systems Division is responsible for the development of air defense systems, including: Arrow 2, Arrow 3, Lightning 8, observation satellites, communications satellites, nano-satellites and satellite launchers
