Page 2market, hence the rather low number of such activities in the Workplan 2009. User terminal activities arewell covered in the co-funded ARTES-3/4.The System area covers networking and propagation. There are five activities related to communicationnetworks covering mobile satellite services, large broadband systems and IP based systems. There are twoactivities in the area of propagation.The activities in the Space Segment – Platform area are divided into platform – system and architecture,propulsion, AOCS, thermal, mechanical and power. The equipment developments are for geostationarysatellite telecommunication platforms, but some of the equipments are also of potential use on othersatellite platforms.The activities in the Space Segment – Payload are divided into antenna, repeater, TT&C and data handling.The antenna related activities address in particular multibeam antennas for high capacity satellites and thedevelopment of an unfurlable reflector of 4 to 7 m diameter for, for example, S-band digital audiobroadcast missions and C-band multibeam missions. The repeater activities address passive components,active high power equipment and one activity to on a Q/V band TWT.Five activities are proposed for development of different types of user terminals.3 ImplementationPhasing: Phasing of the contractual activities may be considered depending on the risk associated with thedevelopments, the maturity of the technologies and market perspectives.Parallel contracts: In accordance with the ARTES-5 Implementing Rules, parallel contracts will not beawarded in ARTES-5.1.Procurement Policy: The following procurement policies are foreseen for the proposed activities. Thedefinition of the measures is according to ESA/IPC(2005)87,rev.4(*):• C:• C1:• C2:• C3:• C4:Activities in open competition without any further restrictions.Activities in open competition limited to non-Large-System Integrators (LSIs) as prime. LSIs areallowed to participate as sub-contractors.Activities are in open competition, where a significant participation of non-LSIs is requested.Activity restricted to SMEs & R&D organisations, preferably in cooperation.Activities in open competition, subject to the SME subcontracting clause.(*) for full definitions please refer to text of this IPC paper.Priority: The Workplan 2009 consists of a number of activities assigned Priority 1 and a number assignedPriority 2. Activities assigned Priority 1 will be initiated on the initiative of the Executive. A planning forthe issue of the invitation to tender as well as the duration of the activity is stated in the heading of thedescription of each activity in Annex 2. The planning will also be published on the telecom web site.Priority 1 activities, for which industry and Participating States show an interest, will be implementedwithout undue delay. Such interest can be notified directly to the ARTES-5.1 Programme Office.Priority 2 activities will only be initiated either:1. on the explicit request of at least one delegation; or2. on the initiative of the Executive following consultation of the JCB.
