PHM (Passive Hydrogen Maser) is the atomic clock used for precise positioning, timekeeping and other onboard applications. Designed to operate in space for more than 12 years, it offers an outstanding stability. PHM is the master clock of the Galileo Navigation Satellite System, and already on orbit with more than 40 units.
Cutting-edge solutions and Space centres of excellence: how we support business, military and institutional clients.
The ExoMars mission requires the collection of subsurface samples down to a depth of two metres. Once collected, the sample is then distributed to a suite of scientific instruments for rover on-board analysis.
From environmental protection to quick mapping in response to natural disasters, as well as maritime surveillance: we offer superior data acquisition, analysis and reporting.
Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPA) in various bands are High-efficiency, solid state MOSFET design based. Among other features it contains input overload and Load mismatch protection. It features Temperature compensation of output power and gain and shows a compact design with integral power supply.
The Lightning Imager (LI) has been designed for the Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) mission, dedicated to meteorogical and climate forecasts.
Lisa Pathfinder probe has the task to pave the way to building a space observatory of gravitational waves that should be fully completed by 2034.
An end-to-end system to deliver micro-thrust (from 1 micro-newton to 1 milli-newton) for ultra-accurate attitude control and station keeping, based on cold gas thruster and accurate metrology and control of the flow. It has been flown on GAIA, LISA Pathfiner, Microscope and will fly on board Euclid.
We believe in the project to create a large European Navigation System, witnessed by our commitment to developing the Galileo and EGNOS programmes.
O3B is a constellation of satellites positioned in medium earth orbit to provide telecommunications and data transfer from remote locations.
We provide services for in-orbit control during launch and post-launch phases, as well as during routine operations.
OPTSAT-3000 is a programme for Earth observation that will allow Defense users to have high-resolution images of every point on Earth.
PHM - Passive Hydrogen Maser is an atomic clock developed by Airborne and Space Systems Division, used for precise positioning, timekeeping and other onboard applications. Designed to operate in space for more than 12 years, it offers an outstanding stability for averaging times from 1 to 100,000 seconds. Airborne and Space Systems Division is also developing a mini PHM, which offers the same frequency stability as the PHM in a smaller package.
The PCU(Power Control Unit) / PCDU (Power Conditioning and Distribution Unit) provide conditioning of the on-board energy sources and the distribution of the power lines to the satellite equipment.
