Description

This high-tech 16U BIU (Bring-Into-Use) satellite has been designed for direct injection into geostationary orbit to provide bring-into-use services using Ka, Ku and other bands. 

Space Inventor is the first company to make such a small satellite capable of raising its orbit by 1200 km concluding a journey of more than 28 million kilometres before entering the first service slot on the geostationary arc. 

Features

Equipped with Ka, Ku and Q/V band transceivers for comprehensive mission capabilities (bands can be customized)
State-of-the-art power distribution modules for efficient energy management
Equipped with a suite of cutting-edge attitude sensors, including star trackers, fine sun sensors, and IMU, ensuring high accuracy pointing knowledge
Vectoring electric propulsion units for orbital manoeuvring and wheel unloading
Capable of manoeuvring from different orbital slots in Geostationary orbit
Four best-in-class momentum wheels with low micro-vibration levels guarantee precise control
Secure decommissioning at the Geostationary Orbit graveyard
Safe decommissioning: Atmosphere disposal protocol
