Title
A comparative study of the prospective solar cells for NPSAT1
Publisher
Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School
Description

The Naval Postgraduate School's next satellite to be launched will be the technology demonstration experiment NPSAT1 in 2006. This satellite will be laden with some of the school's top research projects including on orbit solar cell I-V curve testing. The designers of this satellite were presented with three types of solar cells with which to power their satellite: silicon, gallium arsenide, and triple junction cells. This thesis evaluates those three types of cells on the merits of their advertised and tested efficiency, cost, performance, and reaction to radiation experiments. Although the triple junction cells have already been selected to provide solar power to the onboard experiments, the background justification for such cells is warranted.
