FLIGHT DYNAMICS

Flight dynamics systems provide the necessary means to determine both the position and the orientation of satellites and space systems and also enable the planning and execution of required maneuvers.  As a result, these systems are essential to ensure the perfect reception of satellite communications or the attainment of goals in any mission, whether scientific, exploration or of any other nature.

GMV is a global leader in supplying flight dynamics systems to institutional and commercial customers.  Flight dynamics systems provided by GMV support different mission types, such as scientific, earth observation, telecommunications, orbital transport and infrastructure, navigation, space exploration, and military missions.

In response to the needs of different customers and mission types, GMV provides either turnkey systems developed according to specifications furnished by our customers with specific needs, systems based on ESA orbital dynamics infrastructure, or systems based on the adaptation of focusSuite products, our line of COTS flight dynamics multisatellite and multimission products for the satellite operations support in all kinds of missions and phase levels.

The focusSuite product line includes outstanding products such as focusGEO for GEO satellite support; focusLEO for LEO satellite support; focusCn for satellite constellation support; and focusLEOP for LEOP-phase satellite support.  Our solutions are 100% flight-tested.

GMV also provides consulting and engineering support during any development phase of these systems.

As an independent supplier, GMV is able to provide the best solution for its customers.  Our extensive experience, the knowledge about the different satellite platforms acquired throughout the years, and our close relationship with major satellite manufacturers in the international arena (Astrium, Alcatel Alenia Space, Boeing Satellite Systems, Lockheed Martin, Space Systems Loral, Orbital Sciences Corporation, and NPO PM) enable us to tailor our systems to the needs of our customers and provide optimum solutions to satellite operators, while ensuring data confidentiality for satellite manufacturers.
