OVERVIEW
An innovative system for operating and managing observation and communication satellites, the new SatGuard system is designed to extend the life of satellites deployed in orbit. Powered by AI, Big Data, Deep Learning, and Machine Learning technologies, the system detects anomalies and degradation trends in the satellite’s operations, and its development is based on years of space-focused experience accumulated by IAI’s Systems, Missiles and Space Group, as part of IAI’s internal innovation programs.

Values & Benefits
Satellites generate streams of telemetry data that contains thousands of parameters and information. As satellite complexity grows and more satellites are produced, and the enormous data generated by satellite constellations and mega-constellations, monitoring and analyzing of that data by humans becomes a tremendously challenging task.
Telemetry information received from the satellites enables the system to analyze trends, identify irregularities and changes that occur in the satellite, address them, and prevent future ones.
Aspects that were tested and monitored by SatGuard include: sub-systems temperatures, electric currents and voltages, dynamical behavior, communication sub-systems, and more.
