Atos supports OneWeb in successful launch of 34 new satellites

Atos’ screening answers instrumental in reducing-edge undertaking

Paris, February 17, 2020

Atos, a worldwide leader in digital transformation, announces that it has supported OneWeb and its mega-constellation plan in the profitable launch of 34 satellites which was conducted on February six from Baikonur, Kazakhstan. Atos contributed to this achievements by providing to OneWeb Satellites the screening devices with groundbreaking systems that have substantially diminished the environmental footprint of the method – and received an award from OneWeb Satellites for the Payload Check Methods (PTS) and Tele Command Ranging (TCR) answers.

This important ‘OneWeb mega-constellation’ undertaking, led by OneWeb Satellites[1]  and supported by Atos, entails sending into orbit, above a interval of time, more than 650 satellites which will deliver very affordable high-velocity Online obtain across the globe. The initially six satellites have been launched in February 2019.

“We are proud to aid this sort of an formidable plan with our screening answers we ensure all OneWeb Satellites are rigorously tested in the most successful and powerful way. Together with OneWeb Satellites, we make the mass-production of satellites true.” explained Bruno Milard, VP, Head of Business enterprise Unit Aerospace & Defense Electronics at Atos. “Atos is delighted to aid determine the major edge of satellite manufacturing technological know-how.”

Thanks to its sophisticated answers, Atos was named “Best Ground Aid Gear (GSE) supplier” by OneWeb Satellites in recognition of its technological and professional abilities and the quality of its answers and consumer aid. The award was offered at the OneWeb Satellites World wide Partnership Summit 2020.

Atos’ ProUST univerSAS suite is composed of Power and RF distinctive examine-out devices (SCOE) for electrical floor aid devices (EGSE) which allows satellites to be tested prior to launch – to avoid or repair any problems and make guaranteed specifications are achieved, so minimizing the strategic and economic influence of faulty elements.

Dependent on a breakthrough comprehensive-digital layout, ProUST univerSAS improves perform quality and optimizes the electric power and vitality density of satellite electric power screening. This illustrates Atos’ motivation in the direction of an vitality-aware upcoming and paves the way for upcoming environmental-pleasant developments.
