Der Satellit
The OPS-SAT bus provides the necessary fail-safe infrastructure to operate the payload. It comprises the following subsystems:
- On-Board Computer (OBC)
- Coarse Attitude Determination and Control System (ADCS)
- Electical Power System (EPS), including solar panels and batteries
- UHF Transceiver for basic low-data rate telemetry and telecommanding
