Title
On the reliability, availability, and throughput of satellite swarms
Abstract
Based on the opportunities and gained reputation of individual nanosatellites, a larger number of identical nanosatellites may, in the future, build up a spacecraft swarm for applications, such as multipoint sensing, virtual instruments, or enhanced communication. However, the overall system characterization of such a spacecraft swarm as well as its comparison to classical monolithic space archite...
