Electric power supply system for ocean satellite

OCEAN satellite is intended for Earth remote sensing. Electric power supply of onboard equipment is ensured by the electric power supply system of photoelectric type of 1700W daily average and 3.5kW in a session. The system contains two identical modules that are united into common outputs by power and command circuits. A module includes solar array, storage battery, regulating and service devices that form a control loop. The report presents main characteristics of the electric power supply system and its components, a number of flight data that confirm stable realization of all design modes of system operation.
