Calculations and analysis of radiation transport in projects that involve radiation sources at INVAP(Nuclear Reactors, Spacecrafts)Development of 3D radiation transport models, gamma radiation calculation, shielding design or validation. Cumulative radiation effects in the space for a full electric-propulsion geostationary spacecraft were analyzed. An assessment of cumulative displacement damage effect (DDE) over solar cells were specifically addressed considering the long time orbit… Show more Calculations and analysis of radiation transport in projects that involve radiation sources at INVAP(Nuclear Reactors, Spacecrafts)Development of 3D radiation transport models, gamma radiation calculation, shielding design or validation.

SAOCOM S/C SAR image Quality and SNR Role analysis: The total SNR in the image and its impact in the SAR image quality was evaluated in the context of the SAOCOM updated configuration. Detailed calculations of the signals dynamic range, thermal noise, quantization noise and the compression method influence in the image SNR are also addressed. An end to end picture of the foreseen image quality was presented for the configuration of the instrument.SACOM SAR Pointing Error Budget: The… Show more SAOCOM S/C SAR image Quality and SNR Role analysis: The total SNR in the image and its impact in the SAR image quality was evaluated in the context of the SAOCOM updated configuration. Detailed calculations of the signals dynamic range, thermal noise, quantization noise and the compression method influence in the image SNR are also addressed. An end to end picture of the foreseen image quality was presented for the configuration of the instrument.SACOM SAR Pointing Error Budget: The geometric, electrical, thermoelastic and 0g error sources were assessed. Montecarlo simulations of the antenna pattern were executed to obtain the impact of each error source in the pointing of the pattern, The results accomplished with the provided allocation for these errors.Quantization Noise and QSNR reassessment: A novel approach to his topic allowed to find analytic method to obtain the QSNR for any digitalization/compression method provided that the probability density function of the input signal is known. This was applied to SAOCOM SAR signal to modify the codification of the BAQ compression method. Show less

-The tasks executed were all related to Radars signals. A brief summary includes:- Design and Implementation of an Automatic Target Classification method.- Design and analysis of a Non-Supervised Clustering Method intended to nucleate different echoes from the same target. This method was implemented and is currently used in the RPA Radar from INVAP
