Abstract :
Nanosatellite has limited functions because of the mass constraint from 1 to 10 kg. Therefore, the requirement of low cost, low mass, low dimension, and low power consumption must be fulfilled in designing and choosing the component of nanosatellite. To obtain wider coverage area while maintaining the low dimension, camera array was used to produce image with wider area. In this research, On Board Data Handling (OBDH) implemented in FPGA used below 100% of the total FPGA resource. LUT-FF pairs was the most used resource with 75% of usage. OBDH also combined the image from each camera to get image with wider area. The FPGA and 4 cameras used 2264.44 milliwatt of power consumption, higher than the remote sensing system of SNAP-1 nanosatellite which used 1 milliwatt of power consumption.
