    ECSS Multipactor Tool

    The ECSS Multipactor Tool v. 2.0.0 (Copyright ESA) is a software tool based on the following European Cooperation for Space Standardization (ECSS) document: Multipactor design and test (ECSS-E-ST-20-01C), 2020.

    - ECSS-E-HB-20-01A Multipactor handbook.

    - ECSS-E-ST-20-01C Multipactor design and test

    This version of the ECSS Multipactor Tool is firstly dedicated to evaluate the Multipactor risk on RF devices in single and multi-carrier modes using different approaches, like the Pulsed Method or the Sweep Method.

    Furthermore, from user defined SEY curve, the Multipactor Tool v. 2.0.0 is able to rebuild the Hatch and Williams sensitivity curves for normalised devices as defined in the ECSS standard.
