  1. 1. Design of a 2-D Lattice Flower Constellation for Earth observation applying the twin satellite concept

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Julia Martín-Fuertes Brañas; [2023]
    Keywords : 2D Lattice Flower Constellation design; number of satellites; number of planes; revisit time; coverage; optimized constellation; target list; twin satellite concept; FreeFlyer; 2D Lattice Flower Constellation design; antal satelliter; antal plan; återbesökstid; täckning; optimerad konstellation; mållista; tvilling-satellit-koncept; FreeFlyer;

    Abstract : Events such as forest fires or floods are a danger to our Earth’s environment and the people living in it. The sooner they can be detected, the less damage they can cause. An idea arises: use satellites to monitor the Earth and relay information to prevention and rescue organizations in a very short time, regardless of accessibility from ground. READ MORE

  2. 2. LEO Satellite Connectivity for flying vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jinxuan Chen; [2023]
    Keywords : LEO satellite network; satellite connectivity strategy; Nash-SAC; flying vehicles; LEO:s satellitnät; Strategi för satellitanslutning; Nash-SAC; flygande fordon;

    Abstract : Compared with the terrestrial network (TN), which can only support limited covered areas, satellite communication (SC) can provide global coverage and high survivability in case of an emergency like an earthquake. Especially low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites, as a promising technology, which is integral to achieving the goal of global seamless coverage and reliable communication, catering to 6G’s communication requirements.

  4. 4. Time series analysis for spring barley phenology monitoring using Sentinel 2 – A case study of Southern-central Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pavlos Aslanis; [2020]
    Keywords : spring barley; crop phenology; crop growth stages; TIMESAT; double logistic; threshold optimization; Sentinel 2; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Monitoring crop phenology at parcel scale aligns with the concept of precision agriculture (PA) and can provide invaluable information to agronomic management systems. Satellite time series data are commonly deployed for detecting crop growth stages, while the recent advancements in remote sensing (RS) technologies such as the launch of Sentinel 2 (S2) are providing unprecedented opportunities for crop monitoring.

  5. 5. Scheduling of a Constellation of Satellites: Improving a Simulated Annealing Model by Creating a Mixed-Integer Linear Model

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Philippe Monmousseau; [2015]
    Keywords : Scheduling of a Constellation of Satellites; Mixed-Integer Linear Optimization;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to provide a new scheduling model of a large constellation of imaging satellites that does not use a heuristic solving method. The objective is to create a mixed-integer linear model that would be competitive in speed and in its closeness to reality against a current model using simulated annealing, while trying to improve both models.
