Head of Bureau of Major R&D Programs, CAS, Chief Scientist, Chief Engineer and Representatives from Satellite System, Chinese Control Center (CCC), Ground Support System (GSS) and Science Application System (SAS) attended the meeting.

The Satellite system from Innovation Academy for Microsatellites of CAS (IAMC) made the Phase B summary report, the Phase C design report including AIT schedule, test matrix, interface with other systems and PLM, risk, safety, reliability, etc. The review board agreed that IAMC has finished the work of Phase B including the key technology studies of equivalent potential and residual magnetic of SMILE satellite. The interface with PLM and other system is confirmed and determined. The design of satellite is reasonable and feasible and can meet the mission general requirements. The AIT plan and schedule is generally reasonable. The SMILE satellite PDR review is SUCCESSFUL.
