Details

Telecommunication sattelites are powered while in orbit by solar cells. Tadicell, a solar cells producer that supplies several satellite manufacturers, was requested to provide data on the degradation of its solar cells over time. Tadicell engineers performed a simulated experiment in which solar cells were subjected to temperature and illumination changes similar to those in orbit and measured the short circuit current ISC (ampers), of solar cells at three different time periods, in order to determine their rate of degradation.
