Atos supports OneWeb in successful launch of 34 new satellites

Atos’ testing alternatives instrumental in cutting-edge undertaking

Paris, February seventeen, 2020

Atos, a worldwide chief in electronic transformation, announces that it has supported OneWeb and its mega-constellation application in the effective launch of 34 satellites which was done on February six from Baikonur, Kazakhstan. Atos contributed to this results by giving to OneWeb Satellites the testing tools with innovative technologies that have considerably decreased the environmental footprint of the process – and received an award from OneWeb Satellites for the Payload Exam Techniques (PTS) and Tele Command Ranging (TCR) alternatives.

This key ‘OneWeb mega-constellation’ undertaking, led by OneWeb Satellites[1]  and supported by Atos, requires sending into orbit, over a period of time, far more than 650 satellites which will give affordable large-speed Internet entry across the world. The first six satellites were being introduced in February 2019.

“We are proud to help such an formidable application with our testing alternatives we make sure all OneWeb Satellites are rigorously tested in the most economical and helpful way. Alongside one another with OneWeb Satellites, we make the mass-output of satellites true.” reported Bruno Milard, VP, Head of Enterprise Unit Aerospace & Defense Electronics at Atos. “Atos is delighted to aid determine the top edge of satellite producing technology.”

Many thanks to its sophisticated alternatives, Atos was named “Best Ground Support Tools (GSE) supplier” by OneWeb Satellites in recognition of its specialized and professional abilities and the top quality of its alternatives and shopper help. The award was offered at the OneWeb Satellites World wide Partnership Summit 2020.

Atos’ ProUST univerSAS suite is composed of Power and RF particular check out-out tools (SCOE) for electrical ground help tools (EGSE) which enables satellites to be tested prior to launch – to avert or fix any problems and make absolutely sure necessities are fulfilled, thus decreasing the strategic and fiscal effect of defective components.

Based on a breakthrough comprehensive-electronic style, ProUST univerSAS enhances function top quality and optimizes the electricity and vitality density of satellite electricity testing. This illustrates Atos’ determination toward an vitality-mindful foreseeable future and paves the way for foreseeable future environmental-pleasant developments. The alternative was designed by Atos in Austria with Austrian national co-funding by using the European Place Agency (ESA).
