On-orbit electrical power system dataset of 1U CubeSat constellation.

ABSTRACT: This article presents a database containing on-orbit data samples of the Electrical Power System (EPS) from 4 different 1U CubeSats belonging to the BIRDS constellation. The EPS is responsible for providing uninterrupted power to overall satellite both during sunlight and eclipse. The satellites are based on the BIRDS open-source standardized bus designed by Kyutech for research and education. BIRDS bus was used for six satellites that were delivered to ISS on board the Cygnus re-supply spacecraft launched by Antares rocket and released from International Space Station (ISS) into ISS orbit (altitude 400 km, inclination: 51.6°, duration: 92.6 min). The dataset contains the data of voltage (mV), current (mA) and temperature (Celsius) of the battery and solar panels attached to 5 sides of the
