Résumé
[en] OUFTI-NEXT is going to be the third CubeSat developed by Université de Liège. It is expected to be one of the first CubeSats equipped with a Mid-Wave Infrared camera and the first demonstrator for the use of this technology for agricultural fields temperature monitoring.
This work has the aim to evaluate if the required performances can be reached by a 3U CubeSat orbiting in LEO and then, if the OUFTI-NEXT mission is feasible. To answer that question, the necessary instrument characteristics have been individualized and compared with commercially available cameras.
To evaluate the feasibility of the mission, a software for study how the different parameters influence the instrument performances has been developed. In particular, a procedure for a quick evaluation of the thermal resolution has been realized. Models for radiometry, optics, and detector to be implemented in parametric studies are going to be proposed.
