AcknowledgementsI want to thank the Professor Jacques Verly for launching this wonderful project and hissupport to the whole team.I also thank Gregory Dewilde, Alain Gruwë, my industrial supervisors at Thales AleniaSpace of Mont sur Marchienne, for all their advices, and giving me the opportunity to workin an industrial environment.I wish to thank the monitoring students, Amandine Denis and Jonathan Pisane, for thetime they devoted to manage the team, and also to Luc Hallbach for his help and advice tothe team.Thanks to all the students I had the pleasure to work with during this project for theiruseful cooperation and for the good time we had together.I finally thank my parents, for their continuous support during my thesis and throughoutwhole studies.Pierre Thirion2

AbstractOUFTI-1 is a picosatellite developed by students at the University of Liège (ULg). Thegoal of the OUFTI project is to provide a hands-on satellite experience to students. Thesubject of the present thesis is the design and implementation of the electrical power system(EPS) of OUFTI-1. The EPS role is to supply other systems of the satellite with appropriateelectrical power. First, the requirements of the EPS are defined. The architecture of the EPSis then designed. When the architecture is known, we verify that the consumed power onboard does not exceed the produced power. The electrical design of the different modules ofthe EPS is carried out. Finally, the prototypes of the EPS are presented.Keywords: OUFTI-1, CubeSat, LEODIUM, Electrical power system.
