5.4.2 An Advanced Methodology for the Design Process of a Satellite

Abstract

AbstractThis paper describes a methodical and logical approach of process design as employed within the Satellite Design Office at Dornier Satellite Systems GmbH. It concerns the concept development phase (Phase A/B). Many papers have been written on the subject of the concept design centers, but nearly none of them describe the intern design process. At last this paper focuses on the method in which way the design process is analyzed as well as on the description of the process itself. All involved disciplines during a design project are described as well as their prime interfaces.
