RUM2021 RUM2021-EuroCentral CustomerPresentation CST Studio Suite Electromagnetics
Abstract:
The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) satellite is the first European mission to Jupiter. In order to get an optimal science return from the various instruments very stringent requirements are applicable for magnetic and electrical cleanliness on the satellite as well as on the functionality and installed pattern of the various antennas. The wide variety of applications from DC magnetics up to high frequencies in the X-band has called for the need of the full bandwidth of solver techniques implemented in CST Design Studio in this “journey through the Jovian spectrum”.
