BENEFITS

Why simulations?

The evolving New Space landscape brings unique challenges – especially with the rise of complex NGSO mega-constellations.

With thousands of satellites in orbit, optimizing these constellations is more critical than ever.

Magister’s accurate simulators help you plan space missions in a risk-free environment.

Save time and money

Running proof-of-concept simulations before investing in device prototypes and test setups is faster, cost-effective and sustainable.

Optimize resources and energy consumption in constellation planning.

Ensure system functionality

Ensure system functionality, quality and profitability before real-world deployment.

Identify potential problems before building the system.

Evaluate systems in realistic scenarios

Develop and test a vast amount of potential systems in realistic scenarios for current and future challenges without excessive costs.

Run simulations multiple times with different parameters to observe system behaviour under different circumstances.

Keep up with the New Space industry

Accelerate innovation and gain a competitive edge in the New Space landscape through validating new scenarios and systems in simulation.

Test complex scenarios

Test complex scenarios that would be difficult or impossible to recreate in a real-world setting.

Develop new protocols, algorithms and features

Develop new protocols, algorithms and features.

For example: hybrid networks (5G TN/NTN), performance of already existing networks, multi-connectivity.
