Abstract

This paper reports the design, operating principle, testing and qualification of a compact demonstrator payload designed for evaluating the performance RF micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) switches in low earth orbit conditions on an experimental small satellite platform. Key aspects calibration of RF level detectors and the approach for fault detection from telemetry data are discussed. The payload has a weight of 800 g, foot print of 100 mm × 110 mm, height 100 mm and power consumption 4.2 W. Telemetry requirements are suitable for typical small satellite missions. The electronics components used are commercial grade which have undergone payload level qualification tests for the intended mission using the proto flight model test philosophy.
