Development of Micro-satellite Technology at the Indonesian National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN)

TRIHARJANTO, Robertus Heru

[ABSTRACT]The evolution of desain of LAPAN's micro-satellite will be presented in here. Micro satellite systems have been chosen for space technology development in Indonesia due to the cost effectiveness. Starting in 2003, LAPAN has implemented LAPAN-TUBSAT micro-satellite program, which has successfully carried its mission as experimental Earth observation satellite and capacity building tools. The satellite is currently serving its 5th year of operation. Since 2008, LAPAN is preparing two satellites; named LAPAN-ORARI and LAPAN-IPB. The mission for LAPAN-ORARI is Earth observation using RGB camera, maritime traffic monitoring using AIS, and amateur radio communication (text & voice). The satellite will be launched as auxiliary payloads for ASTROSAT mission which has orbit of be 650 km circular at inclination of 8°, expectedly before the end of 2012. The purpose of the project is to develop capability to design, Assembly, Integration and Test (AIT) process of microsatellite in Indonesia. LAPAN-IPB will cary an experimental 4-bands multispectral imager, as well as AIS and communication for Amateur Radio Community, and to be flown by PSLV SSO mission expectedly before the end of 2013. The three projects shows LAPAN's micro-satellite bus development, that grow in complexity to accomodate more complex mission. The knowledge advancement is expected to prepare the Center for developing operational satellite for supporting the food security program in Indonesia.
