Abstract

Following the commercial trend of space sector and taking advantage of smaller satellites to be launched especially in LEO; OrbitPlus Technology Group began the feasibility study and preliminary system design for a 3U CubeSat which can support a general designed payload in one unit and two other units which filled by essential subsystems. This paper contains the main subsystems initial conditions to support longer orbital lifetime with altitudes higher than 500 (Km) for different types of payload. To have a clear idea on required subsystems, Structural, Command and Data Handling, Telecommunication, Power Generation, Attitude Control, Propulsion and End-of-Life Disposal subsystems have been investigated. This study can be first step of initial detail system design of OrbitPlus CubeSat open platform with respect to specific requirements of different payloads.
