FEEP Cluster - Generic FEEP Cluster Qualification
The goal of this research task is to demonstrate the long operating capabilities required for such missions that may exceed several thousands of hours as well as to build a cluster of several emitters that can still be operated by a single high voltage power supply. This cluster has to comply with increasing thrust demands by the satellites.
GATE - Generic ASIC Test Environment
The Generic ASIC Test Environment (GATE), that has been developed in the present project, is a tool for the time-saving and cost-effective verification and validation of ASICs and FPGAs for satellite on-board electronics.
GMSM - Global Monitoring of Soil Moisture for Water Hazards Assessment
The overall goal of the GMSM project is to advance the use of soil moisture services based on METOP ASCAT and complementary satellite systems, most importantly SMOS and ENVISAT ASAR, by extending existing products developed at I.P.F. TU Vienna to Africa and Australia, for which extensive calibration and validation activities will be carried out and novel water hazards applications will be developed by the project consortium.
GMSM II - Global Monitoring of Soil Moisture for Water Hazards Assessment
GMSM II was the follow-up of the GMSM activity performed within ASAP 6. It was launched to advance the use of soil moisture services based on EUMETSAT’s MetOp ASCAT sensor and complementary satellite systems. The GMSM II project has successfully accomplished major achievements towards this goal.
GNSS-MET - Rapid Delivery of Tropospheric Wet Delays Based on GNSS Observations for Weather Forecast
The aim of the project is to provide GNSS based measurements of the tropospheric water vapour content to be used within the INCA system.
GNSSMET-AUSTRIA - GNSS based determination of atmospheric humidity changes and their assimilation into operational weather forecast systems
In the framework of project GNSSMET AUSTRIA the wet part of the tropospheric delay is estimated with a temporal resolution of one hour and an accuracy of better than +/- 1mm PW based on observations of a GNSS reference network covering more than 30 stations distributed over the whole Austrian territory. These values are assimilated within the ALADIN-Austria model operated at the Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics (ZAMG).
GPS Receiver - Global Positioning System Receiver Software Modules
The project aims at designing and developing software modules for a navigation receiver for space applications complements and at developing the so-called Innovative Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Receiver.
GRAS - Galileo Road Application Simulator
GRAS is a simulation and verification tool to support satellitepositioning and navigation technology and to particularly demonstrate the expected Galileo system and service characteristics at selected Points of Interest (POI) in the urban area.
GS M&C - Ground Segment Monitoring & Control
The goal of this project is to design and develop basic components for a generic, state-of-the-art Monitoring and Control (M&C) System for monitoring and controlling both hardware equipment and running software applications.
GeGS TTMS - Generic Ground Station Telemetry, Telecommand & Monitoring System
The aim of the project GeGS-TTMS is the provision of a generic uplink interface supporting different base-band equipments.
GeMIE - Generic Mission Independent EGSE Infrastructure
HERSCHEL/PACS - The Austrian Participation in the ESA-Cornerstone Mission HERSCHEL: On-board Data Reduction and Compression
The Herschel Space Observatory (formerly know as FIRST, theFar Infra-Red Space Telescope), a cornerstone of ESA's Space Horizon 2000 programme, will for the first time facilitate the investigation of the far infrared and submillimetre radio regime of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is not accessible from the ground. In this wavelength range the primary research goals will be in the fields of stellar evolution, development of planetary systems, interstellar matter and the origin of galaxies.
HP3-PP - Development of the HP3 Permittivity Probe Onboard the ESA ExoMars Mission
The HP3 (Heat flow and Physical Properties Probe) instrument was developed to investigate the thermal, mechanical and electrical properties of soil. The permittivity probe (PP) within the HP3 instrument shall determine the electrical permittivity and conductivity of the soil adjacent to the sensor.
High Performance Superinsulation for Long Term Vacuum Stability
Within this project Beyond Gravity wants to perform a research and development programme concerning specific thermal insulation for use in vacuum insulated double wall steel tank systems for storage of liquid gas as Helium or Hydrogen. Such tank systems shall be used e.g. in medical applications or hydrogen propelled cars. Hydrogen propelled cars may become important for the deployment of sustainable energy sources.
I-Game NG - Integrated Telemetry and GIS-System for Wildlife Management Next Generation
The project aimed at developing a telemetry system based on GPS and GSM technology which provides generally higher data rates due to additional energy generation on the animal.
InfraGEO - Earth Observation Mission Database
The aim of this activity is to develop a standard solution for a generic, comprehensive, central, long-term mission archive for Earth Observation missions.
JUNO/Waves - Calibration of the JUNO/Waves Antenna System
This project was dedicated to the analysis of electric field sensors as flown on board the NASA spacecraft JUNO to the gas giant Jupiter. The overarching goal of the JUNO mission is to understand Jupiter’s origin and evolution.
MEDUSA - Model Error Detection by Using Simulated Satellite Images
The project MEDUSA aims at an objective quantitative decision tool to judge simulated imagery vis-à-vis reality, enabling a profound selection of the most appropriate forecast model for the day.
