New Space Electronics

Beyond Gravity has a long and successful track record of developing and manufacturing high-quality space electronics. With over 40 years of experience, the company has supplied mission-critical products for a wide range of satellite missions.

Beyond Gravity is now offering revolutionary New Space electronics products purely based on commercial components. By using commercial components, Beyond Gravity is able to offer its customers high-performance, reliable, and affordable products without sacrificing quality or reliability. Beyond Gravity's New Space electronics product line includes central computers, navigation receivers, and remote terminal units.

Constellation On Board Computer (cOBC)

The Constellation On Board Computer (cOBC) is a revolutionary New Space product that provides a complete subsystem entirely based on commercial components to enable high performance and short lead times at an affordable price.

The cOBC is ideal for a wide range of New Space missions, including small satellites, constellations, and cubesats. It is also suitable for use in more traditional space missions, where its high performance and reliability are essential.

The cOBC provides a host of functions, including processing, GNSS receiver, ground communication, and platform and payload interfaces. It is also fully redundant and offers flight proven fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) as well as radiation mitigation to provide a highly reliable solution.

Constellation Remote Terminal Unit (cRTU)

The same I/O boards that can be integrated within the cOBC can also form a stand-alone Remote Terminal Unit. The Constellation Remote Terminal Unit (cRTU) is a new space product that provides a highly reliable unit for bridging between the On Board Computer and platform electronic interfaces. It is based on the same commercial components that are used in the cOBC, making it a reliable and cost-effective choice for a wide range of New Space missions.

The I/O boards are highly customizable, and additional modifications and new board types can be developed upon request. This makes it easy to tailor the cRTU to meet the specific needs of any new space mission.

PDIO board The PDIO board is a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution that offers many common analogue interfaces to support magnetorquers, analogue acquisitions, thermistors, secondary power supplies, and stepper motors including SADE.

NavRIX PinPoint

The NavRIX PinPoint, Beyond Gravity’s multi-constellation (GPS, GALILEO) multi-frequency GNSS receiver provides an outstanding on-board real-time navigation with an accuracy of below 1 meter (<20 cm with optional Precise Point Positioning software). With Precise Orbit Determination (POD) based on on-ground post-processed dual-frequency receiver data, a satellite position measurement accuracy of 1 cm can be achieved.

NavRIX PinPoint features a PPP algorithm, which utilizes subscription-free Galileo High Accuracy Service (Galileo E6 HAS) correction data to achieve centimeter-level precision. Additionally, NavRIX PinPoint is equipped with internal Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs), a selective RF filter, and a low-noise amplifier to further boost its performance. It also employs an accurate force model-based orbit propagator and state-of-the-art Kalman filtering to provide users with reliable and accurate navigation data.
