ESA HydroGNSS Delivery to SSTL

 

At the Space-Comm Expo 2022, EECL signed a contract with Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL) to supply flight units of the RF Front End and Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for the ESA Scout mission, also known as HydroGNSS.

 

Prior to this, EECL had already designed and delivered engineering models for the mission, which were sent to SSTL for qualification testing. In August 2023, EECL successfully completed the contract by delivering all nine flight units following successful environmental testing.

 

HydroGNSS employs a bistatic radar concept that uses GNSS-reflected signals for hydrological measurements, including soil moisture, freeze/thaw states over permafrost, above-ground biomass, and wetlands. EECL is incredibly proud to have played an integral role in this ground-breaking mission.
