The Institute of Astronautics at TU München offers with its programm „Satellite Systems & Operations“ a compact workshop in Satellite Services and Operations. An exlusive selection of experts talk about orbit mechanic, satellite communication systems, measurement techniques, space law and insurance of satellites. The practical sessions of the workshop, are performed on measurements of RF components and measurements on two of the own avaliable ground stations at Institute of Astronautics. |
