Research and Thinking on Digital Development of Satellite Equipment

Digitalization is an emerging technological change, with digitalization of national defense equipment bearing the brunt. It is an important force that reflects the national comprehensive capability in the new era. In the digitalization of national defense equipment, satellite equipment is an important part of the integration of air and space. Rapid realization of the digitalization of satellite equipment is an important development direction of how to greatly speed up the iterative upgrade cycle of satellite equipment, compress the cost of equipment research and development and use, and realize the replacement of satellite equipment at a faster speed and lower cost. It can significantly shorten the research and development cycle and reduce the construction cost. In this paper, the development history of equipment digitization is briefly summarized. The digital development strategies of various space powers led by the United States in recent years are investigated. The key technologies involved in the process of equipment digitization are analyzed. Based on this, the emphases, future trends and key technologies of satellite equipment digitization development are summarized and analyzed. The measures and suggestions are put forward in the light of our current development situation. It can provide an important reference for our country to digitize satellite equipment in the future.
