The main purpose of this project is the development of a system able to characterize solar panels in order to obtain higher TRL levels.This system consist of a photovoltaic measurement system and a low cost home-made Thermal and Vacuum Chamber.Furthermore, the system is managed by a graphical user interface where the obtained curves and data can also be visualized.From the beginning of the project, the methodology sought a product and market oriented philosophy.Each decision concerning the project's development, without exception, is taken considering all the criteria involves, that is, engineering criteria as well as the pricing and the market availability.In this manner, the project arises from requirements which might be given by an assumed and imaginary client.Technical requirements emerge then from those previous requirements.Afterwards, a complete process involving analysis, design and implementation is carried out.This project is presented as a Master Thesis within the Master in Telecommunication Engineering of the University of Granada.Therefore, it is captivating to not merely focus on a specialised but also a multidisciplinary approach in which the student uses the competences acquired during the academic period as well as the concepts learn by the realization of this work.In order to enhance the significance of the project, several and distinct technologies are used.Some of the technologies used during the project are instrumentation and control, CAD/CAM design and software design.Moreover, the management system is presented via GUI which focus on the user experience and the ease of use.This system is intended to be a crucial tool for the new projects and challenges the GranaSAT Team will face.The result of this work concludes obtaining a comprehensive measurement system which meets the Functional and the Client's Technical Requirements previously specified.
