Princeton Satellite Systems, Inc. is a small company specializing in aerospace control and simulation technology. We are actively developing state-of-the-art technology for lighter-than-air-vehicles, solar sails, and spacecraft formation flying. Our areas of expertise include control, estimation, and simulation. We have numerous goverment contracts and we sell commercial software including control toolboxes for MATLAB&trade, stand-alone simulations, and C++ libraries for real-time software.
Princeton Satellite Systems can help you meet the challenge of designing a spacecraft control system because of our experience in control system analysis, design, and evaluation. Since we began operations in 1992, our work has included the GPS IIR attitude determination system, the Cakrawarta-1 attitude control system, and the Telstar 4 flight software.
Depending on your needs, we can supply you with an entire attitude control system including: flight computer, sensors, actuators, and the flight software, or just the control system design and software requirements.
Princeton Satellite Systems can help keep your software projects on schedule and under budget. We are well versed in modern languages such as C++ and Objective-C, as well as state-of-the-art design methodologies. In addition, we have extensive experience with the design, testing, and verification of satellite flight software. One of our first jobs was to support the FQT of the GPS IIR software for GE Astro Space (now part of Lockheed Martin). We also developed a ground software attitude estimator for Koreasat. We sell Matlab packages for design, analysis and simulation of Spacecraft, Aircraft and Wind Turbines We have a C++ matrix library, MatrixLib, for adding Matlab like matrix manipulations to your C++ code. Our latest product is VisualCommander for data acquisition, simulation and hardware control.
Princeton Satellite Systems is uniquely qualified to support your launch operations. Our background includes numerous satellite launches, hundreds of satellite maneuvers, and launch team supervision. We have provided attitude analyst support for the Telstar 402, Asiasat, and Koreasat launches.
We have developed custom tools for spin axis attitude determination that include state-of-the-art numerical algorithms. The tools, designed to be used with MATLAB, are easy to use and to customize.
Princeton Satellite Systems offers a full range of design services to its customers. We are available on short notice and can accommodate nearly any schedule, whether it is for a single day, or for the entire life cycle of your spacecraft.
Our engineers have had extensive spacecraft experience prior to joining Princeton Satellite Systems. Some highlights are listed below.
