Analysis of the Application of 5G Technology in Spacecraft Testing

The increasing number, variety and complexity of spacecraft are placing greater demands on spacecraft testing. This paper analyses the future of 5G (The fifth generation mobile communication network) technology in the field of spacecraft testing. The application of 5G technology to spacecraft testing will lead to a change in the existing testing paradigm, increase the automation, digitalization and intelligence of testing, improve the sharing of test data and shorten the time required for testing. This paper explores the prospects and feasibility of applying 5G technology to satellite testing, where intelligent testing on satellites can optimise spacecraft layout and will also reduce the hazards associated with mishandling during manual testing. Data from the all test process can also be recorded, making it easy to apply this data to other areas of space technology and management. In the future, it will also be of great research value for the realization of multi-star parallel testing.
