The IOD/IOV challenge

FINAL for PC

17

�  Achieving maturity through IOD/IOV is a pre-requisite for competitiveness and safe implementation of Space technologies

�  Eurospace has gathered a preliminary list of candidates ÷  The Eurospace preliminary list includes 47 proposals (see next slides)

�  An open/transparent process coordinated with all stakeholders (institutions and industry) for identifying/selecting candidates shall be established in view of 2020 implementation

�  A lean programmatic solution for an IOD/IOV implementation in the H2020 context shall be found soon ¡  A few interesting avenues were proposed at 26-28 September 2016

Workshop ¡  Industry is ready to support technically and programmatically the

Commission for implementation

The issue of 'Orphan lines'

15/12/2016 FINAL for PC

18

�  An 'orphan line' is an activity proposed for implementation in a previous H2020 call, for which no project was selected. ¡  Situation can be critical,

particularly in COMPET-1 calls where all lines have been identified as 'critical' for Europe

�  Corrective actions ¡  Increase budget per call to

cover all lines ¡  Ensure activity tracking to

identify critical gaps ¡  Allow continuity in calls to

postpone activities to later calls when not covered

�  Examples of 'orphan lines' from previous COMPET-1 calls ¡  U17 - High density (up to 1000

pins and beyond) assemblies on PCB - 2014

¡  U4 - Advanced materials and material technology for combustion chambers - 2015

¡  U6 - Fibre Optic Gyro (FOG) based Inertial Measurement Unit - IMU - 2015

¡  N27 - RF components - 2016 ¡  U14 - Active discrete power

components. - 2016 ¡  U20 - Very high performance

microprocessors. - 2016

Propulsion challenges

activities that provide solutions to the current Chemical and Electric propulsion challenges. They are influenced by environmental legislations (e.g. REACH), by new enhanced propulsion for launchers and by innovative mission profiles relying on full electric propulsion satellites. Developments are not limited to propulsion systems, but also involve new materials, new propellant formulations, models, ground test facilities. Regarding electric propulsion, developments will also include power generation and thermal aspects driven by EP systems implementation.

Mission enablers

activities supporting next generation or future missions, in satellite applications, science, exploration and robotics. Includes activities aiming at e.g. improved resolution in EO, higher throughput in TLC or better signal precision in NAV. Usually activities with med/high TRL start and med to high maturity targets. Also includes mission enablers in science, such as instrument technologies. Are also included exploration and human flight enabling technologies such as habitats, long distance flight, landing and surface activities, robotics etc.

Cost/Mass activities aiming at reducing the cost and/or mass of systems. These include incremental efforts over existing technologies but also radical innovations.

Design & Manufacturing

activities aiming at improving the design and/or manufacturing of space systems and parts, such as the adoption of new materials, the use of additive manufacturing or improvements in design and simulation tools. These drivers have potential a strong impact on industry processes and system design.

Data Challenge activities that support increased data handling requirements, such as big data aspects, secure data transfer, long distance data transfers, high data rates and all processing/storage issues. These developments are transversal in nature and may support missions in EO, science, Telecoms, Nav etc.

Innovation Challenge

activities that provide breakthrough solutions or new horizons for space systems and missions, include low TRL research, new missions concepts ground braking innovations in development and manufacturing techniques, radical models improvements etc.

materials

activities requiring materials identified as critical by the EU in the 2014 EU critical Materials initiative (Indium, Silicium, Beryllium, Chromium, Gallium, Germanium) - CRMs combine a high economic importance to the EU with a high risk associated with their supply.

Critical Dependence

activities identified with a critical dependence situation, i.e. not available in Europe and whose import is subject to stringent constraints, with risk of supply disruption. Only Level 3 dependence have been flagged.

Critical path activities that combine a high TRL gap and a relatively short time to readiness, setting a short timeframe for development with potentially high costs and higher development risks.
