ADCS
The BST ADCS simulator is a tool to design and test the attitude control functionality of a small satellite. The simulator consists of three main parts: Air Bearing Table, Magnetic Field Simulator, Sun Simulator. Additionally, BST can offer a GPS simulator, a Star Simulator and a full ADCS simulation suite to complement the package. BST has built ADCS simulators also for smaller satellite classes ranging from 1kg to 50kg.
