Simulating Satellite Behaviour

Written By McMaster Space Technology Research Initiative

Orbital analysis of the NEUDOSE satellite will be performed using a program called Systems Tool Kit (STK). This analysis will simulate different behaviors of the satellite including tumbling, access time from Earth, altitude, number of passes through the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), and sun exposure for battery charging.
