C-DReAM is a capacity-level simulator for evaluating Non-Geostationary Satellite Orbit (NGSO, LEO and MEO) satellite systems. It was developed in European Space Agency’s C-DReAM project together with Thales Alenia Space France and enhanced further in the DASCE project.

C-DReAM is now a part of Magister SimLab – the user-friendly, vendor independent, high-class online simulation service.


Deeper understanding of NGSO constellations with C-DReAM

C-DReAM offers versatile possibilities for studying, researching and optimizing NGSO satellite constellations, their characteristics and performance. For example:

  • Satellite constellation design and parameters, coverage, and availability analysis 
  • Link budget analysis with different antenna assumptions or parameters 
  • Satellite system capacity evaluation with different design assumptions
  • Resource allocation algorithm design, optimization, and testing.  

C-DReAM simulator is highly configurable e.g., in terms of satellites, terminals, frequencies, and link budget parameters. For example, C-DReAM can be used to evaluate 5G NR-NTN usability for NGSO satellite constellation systems.
