Vanderplaats Probabilistic* FORM LHS FPI www.phoenix-int.com DESIGNPROCESSOPTIMIZATION INTEGRATION TRADES SIMULATION VISUALIZATION • What is it? A trade study engine for STK • Sample Problems What is the appropriate orbit to achieve my coverage goals When is the best launch time to minimize my fuel requirement? Where should I place my ground stations to achieve highest signal quality • Customer Pain Points Changing values in STK is a trial and error process Time consuming Error prone © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc. All Rights Reserved www.phoenix-int.com DESIGNPROCESSOPTIMIZATION INTEGRATION TRADES SIMULATION VISUALIZATION How does coverage change with inclination angle? How does coverage change when inclination and semimajor are both changed? A launch vehicle will give a certain set of drop-off conditions with known distributions. How does this affect the final orbit? © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc.

All Rights Reserved www.phoenix-int.com DESIGNPROCESSOPTIMIZATION INTEGRATION TRADES SIMULATION VISUALIZATION Analyzer now launches from a toolbar. To get started, click on the Analyzer icon © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc.

Variables can be created from any Data Provider. © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc. All Rights Reserved TRADES SIMULATION VISUALIZATION Instead of importing the whole scenario each time Analyzer loads, users can now just select the variables of interest. This results in significant performance improvements for large scenarios. www.phoenix-int.com DESIGNPROCESSOPTIMIZATION INTEGRATION © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc.

Older Analyzer setups cannot be loaded into the new Analyzer (saved Trade Studies can still be viewed though) • The new architecture has room to grow. As content is added to the Object Model, we can quickly add content to Analyzer too © Copyright 2007 2010 Phoenix Integration, Inc. All Rights Reserved www.phoenix-int.com
