COMMS Power Consumption - Thermal Routing

Thermal Routing Scenarios

1) Heat cannot be expelled fast enough2) Not enough heat is generated / stored3) Over the mission duration, components remain in

operational range

----> From primary analysis, contrary to other projects, excessive cooling will not be an issue. Tested using air insulator distributed network

-----> Next Step : Expand model to complete system

Microprocessors

- Broadcom BCM2835 Chipset- Full OS support (Linux)- 2x I2C, 2xSPI, 1xUART, 1x1Wire

Pros:- Fully integrated MIPI camera interface- Easy SD card access- No HW validation for bringup- Rapid prototype (<1hour for camera)- $5

Cons:- No FRAM memory- Dependency on 3rd party HW- High power usage (~250mA)

25

- TI MPS430 MPU- Bare Metal firmware- Up to 8xSPI, 4xI2C, 4xUART

Pros:- Low power- FRAM memory- Full access to all HW and documentation

Cons:- Not capable of high-speed camera interfacing- Requires a custom PCB (HW bringup)- Requires special SD card driver

Video/Sensor Acquisition & Storage

- Raspberry Pi Zero (x4)- Controls Raspberry Pi Camera- Controls local/external sensor acquisition- Direct storage to SD card

- Raspberry Pi Camera v2.1- 8MP (3280 x 2464 pixels)- 1080p30 video capture (adjustable)- Digital image stabilization- Len focus 1m to infinity- Photo: jpeg, raw, etc. Video: raw h.264

- Each Zero has its own I2C sensor network- Temperature, pressure

- Data stored through Linux file system- Simply insert SD card into host PC for data retrieval- Or use “scp” over serial

Battery Chemistry

Resistance vs. Temperature

Energy Density

Low Discharge Risk Form Factor

NiCd Good Good No AA, AAA, 9V, C, D, multi-cell packs

NiMH Good Good No AA, AAA, 9V, C, D, multi-cell packs

Lead Acid Poor Poor No Sealed container (ex: car battery)

Lithium Ion Best Best Yes multi-cell “pouches”, portable power docks

Lithium Polymer Best Best Yes multi-cell “pouches”, portable power docks

Alkaline Poor Poor No AA, AAA, 9V, C, D, multi-cell packs

Ideal system battery:- Low resistance at low temperature, high energy density, non-explosive

Most common rechargeable battery chemistries:

DAQCS Power Estimate

28

● Major components- Sensor Acquisition and Storage (via Raspberry Pi Zero)- Sensor Power (temperature + pressure)- Reaction Wheel Controller Power (MSP430FRx and IMU)- Reaction Wheel Motor power

● System voltages are still TBD, therefore power is TBD ( based on component selection)

● Estimate of system current draw:

System Current (mA) Notes

Sensor Acquisition and Storage 4 x 250 = 1000 Four Zero’s capturing 1080p30

Sensors 20 x 2 = 40 4 external, 4 internal, 12 redundant

Reaction Wheel Controller 60

Reaction Wheel Motor TBD Based on motor selection / characterization

TOTAL: ~ 1100 + Motor

IMU & Reaction Wheel

29

IMU’s maximum sampling rate: 819.2 Hz

Difference in the angular acceleration of the instrumentation platform to the reaction wheel

ATV Transmitter

Preliminary distance analysis shows we need close to 5W of output RF power for ATV

This will need to be verified by testing the ATV system
