Abstract:The solar arrays of spacecrafts are subjected to a severe radiative environment. Associated degradation rates are dependent on operational orbit configuration. The current approach used in models and tools to determine power degradation shall thus be validated to ensure good prediction accuracy. This paper reports on extensive irradiation test campaigns realized on triple‐junction solar cells to compare degradation induced by different configurations of irradiation reproducing nominally the same displacement d… Show more
