HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTATIONAL MINI-SATELLITE PLATFORM FOR EDGE AI APPLICATIONS FROM SPACE

Project Title: High-performance computational mini-satellite platform for EDGE-AI Applications from space
Acronym: EdgeAISat
Ref: INNEST/2023/180
Participating entities: I.I.U. de Telecomunicaciones y Aplicaciones Multimedia (ITEAM) de la Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (UPV), Dpto. de Ingeniería de Comunicaciones de la Universidad Miguel Hernandez de Elche (UMH) y EmbEddEd Instruments and Systems S.L.

Responsible researcher: Dr. Vicente E. Boria Esbert

Abstract: The main objective is the development of a Minisatellite platform (Smallsat) and the implementation of a demonstrator, in the range of 50kg-75kg weight, oriented to the implementation of artificial intelligence applications on the edge focused on the processing of images of the Earth’s surface from low orbit (400 km to 1000 km high). In the case of the GAM – ITEAM, an X-band communications subsystem (transmitter and antenna) will be designed and validated, with low power consumption (<20W) and reduced dimensions and weight, capable of transmitting data at a rate of more than 100Mpbs.
