Abstract
This paper presents the prediction of various space
radiation parameters for PakSat. The measurement of the
parameters includes the measurement of trapped particles,
solar energetic protons and Galactic Cosmic Rays. The
outcome of this paper is the radiation dose prediction that the
satellite will have to encounter while in orbit. The necessary
space radiation effects are pointed out and some design
mitigation techniques are also proposed based upon the
existing standards and flight history. The ECSS standard for
Space Environment is taken as a guideline for radiation
predictions.
