Quantitative Risk Analysis for Communication Satellite Payload

Abstract

The application of risk management is a critical stage for any spacecraft project to achieve required components and system functionality for a successful mission, a risk management plan is high-level accounts and descriptions of risk concepts for any satellite mission to be successful. This research article investigates the application of criticality analysis and risk priority number analysis for communication satellite payload components by following industry standard and using MIL-STD-1628, MIL-STD-1629A termed as military standard and the ECSS-Q-STD-30-02C termed as European Cooperation for Space Standardization for space product assurance in conducting analysis of risk and determining mitigation techniques and also determined the sample correlation coefficient of criticality of components and risk priority.
