376HP Satellite, e-BIRD, in Orbit Above Europe and Turkey
Eutelsat, S.A. ordered its first satellite from Satellite Development Center in February 2001. The satellite, e-BIRD(TM), is a Boeing 376HP spin stabilized model. The spacecraft carries 20 active Ku-band transponders, each powered by a 33-watt traveling wave tube amplifier. The Ku-band transponders are connected to four spot beams that will provide coverage over Europe and Turkey. All Boeing 376 models have two telescoping cylindrical solar panels. These panels and the deployable antennas are stowed for compactness during launch. The highly reliable design uses a nickel-Hydrogen battery during eclipses. The 376 design minimizes the number of required mechanisms and has never had a deployment failure.
