Atos supports OneWeb in successful launch of 34 new satellites

Atos’ tests methods instrumental in reducing-edge project

Paris, February seventeen, 2020

Atos, a world chief in electronic transformation, announces that it has supported OneWeb and its mega-constellation software in the profitable start of 34 satellites which was carried out on February 6 from Baikonur, Kazakhstan. Atos contributed to this achievements by delivering to OneWeb Satellites the tests equipment with innovative technologies that have drastically lowered the environmental footprint of the approach – and obtained an award from OneWeb Satellites for the Payload Exam Systems (PTS) and Tele Command Ranging (TCR) methods.

This crucial ‘OneWeb mega-constellation’ project, led by OneWeb Satellites[one]  and supported by Atos, consists of sending into orbit, in excess of a period of time, much more than 650 satellites which will present cost-effective superior-speed Online entry throughout the globe. The very first six satellites had been introduced in February 2019.

“We are very pleased to help these an ambitious software with our tests methods we ensure all OneWeb Satellites are rigorously analyzed in the most effective and productive way. Alongside one another with OneWeb Satellites, we make the mass-output of satellites genuine.” said Bruno Milard, VP, Head of Company Unit Aerospace & Protection Electronics at Atos. “Atos is delighted to assistance determine the major edge of satellite production engineering.”

Thanks to its highly developed methods, Atos was named “Best Floor Assist Equipment (GSE) supplier” by OneWeb Satellites in recognition of its technical and business abilities and the excellent of its methods and buyer help. The award was introduced at the OneWeb Satellites International Partnership Summit 2020.

Atos’ ProUST univerSAS suite is composed of Electrical power and RF exclusive check out-out equipment (SCOE) for electrical floor help equipment (EGSE) which allows satellites to be analyzed prior to start – to prevent or repair any problems and make confident demands are met, as a result lessening the strategic and monetary affect of defective components.

Centered on a breakthrough full-electronic design and style, ProUST univerSAS increases do the job excellent and optimizes the ability and electrical power density of satellite ability tests. This illustrates Atos’ commitment towards an electrical power-acutely aware long run and paves the way for long run environmental-helpful developments. The alternative was produced by Atos in Austria with Austrian countrywide co-funding via the European Area Agency (ESA).
