Abstract

A new design for increased power extraction for NanoSatellites is proposed, which is used for KufaSat. This proposed design contains four expandable panels with additional sixteen solar cells, two solar cells on each side of panel. The proposed design with additional panels and how these additional panels are assembled to the body of KufaSat and how they are deployed after the launching are presented. Comparison between original design and proposed design in addition to discussion the increasing in power production and charge current are included.
