Abstract:
Smart on-board processing for Earth observation systems (SOPHOS) is a 3-year Horizon Europe project. SOPHOS will design and implement enabling technology for high-end data products produced on board spacecraft via the implementation of more power efficient high-performance space processing chains for various Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) missions, with a focus on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), which is one of the most data intensive space applications currently used. This paper describes the adopted technology and the selected SAR use cases.
