The article describes a model for satellite systems preliminary design based on European Space Agency concurrent design approach. Space systems preliminary design aspects based on a concurrent engineering methodology are first briefly illustrated. A general description of a typical space system and its subsystems is provided and sizing criteria are provided for each subsystem. The design procedure is formalized according to Unified Modeling Language formalism. A description of the implementation of the model and some conclusive remarks are then included.
