Advances in the Design and Application of a High Performance Micro-Nano Remote Sensing Satellite

The integration technology on micro-nano satellite for high performance remote sensing of H4L (high resolution, high coverage, high intelligence, high applicable flexibility and low cost) is discussed in this paper. The integration of information, energy and mechatronics in platform and payload is the key problem. The information flow processing of platform and payload, the efficient and dynamic management of energy flow, the micro-nano functional units and the multi-functional structure slabs are adopted to achieve high level integration and functionality. Payloads include the optical remote sensing payload unit and micro sensors for space environment detection. The satellite is capable of on-board processing and rapid information transmission, which can improve the flexibility of satellite applications. The techniques presented in this paper can be applied to low-cost constellation networking.
