WP 3300 Payload: Status/Overview
Based on the inputs of WP 3100 for geostationary and of WP 3200 for low earth orbit applications first assessments to show feasibility are performed.
Most of the defined mission requirements are reviewed and iterated with WP3100 and WP 3200.
The requirements are analysed by showing similarity to already existing investigations, mainly derived from the MTG, GeoTrope and Azechem studies.
For specific aspects first mathematical simulations are performed to outline e.g. radiometric instrument performance.
Budgets for mass, power and data rate are derived. A first rating may be performed based on instrument
mass and power budgets.

WP 3300 Geo Mission (inputs from WP 3100):Common Aspects
Compared to the Full Disk Coverage required for MTG (see GeoTROPE red) for CAPACITY the local coverage is limited to Europe (see GeoTROPE blue). Combined with the observation time of 1 hour this is a strong relaxation for Capacity instruments.

WP 3300Mission Aspects
One of the new driving observation requirements is the strongly reduced revisit time, e.g. between 0.5 and 2 hours for air quality observations.
If no full global coverage is required, e.g. over Europe only, geostationary observations are most efficient.
But additional observations are needed globally, so a scenario of two complementary missions, one geostationary and one low earth orbit, is baseline.
Optionally scenarios are constellation of 3 Satellites• in a sun-synchronous low/medium earth orbit (LEO/MEO)
to achieve full global coverage• in a lower inclined low earth orbit (LEO) to improve the
revisit time over Europe with reduced global coverage Three mission scenarios are analyzed
• Sun-Synchronous Option 1 with c.a. 2 hours revisit time• Sun-Synchronous Option 2 with c.a. 4 hours revisit time• 125 deg inclined Orbit with c.a. 2 hours revisit time

WP 3300Mission Aspects: 894 km low inclination orbit
Applying a low inclination orbit an local observation of Europe with an increased revisit frequency is feasible
These orbits are not sun-synchronous• => variation of local time over orbit• => strong variation of observation geometry over orbit• => impacts on satellite design, especially power system

WP 3300Mission Aspects: Conclusions for Constellation
The revisit time can be strongly reduced by using a constellation of 3 satellites
The orbit selection is limited by the useful viewing angles for Nadir observations and the earth radiation environment
An orbit of 3090 km altitude allows a 2.55 hours revisit time in a sun-synchronous orbit, but for this altitude the total radiation dose can not be handled.
So a constellation of 3 satellites with ca. 894 km orbit altitudes is recommended• Sun-synchronous option
- to achieve global earth coverage with 2 successive orbits
- with a revisit time of < 3.4 hours over Europe.• Low inclination option
- to achieve nearly global earth coverage
- with a revisit time of < 1.8 hours over Europe.
