Abstract
The success of space technology evolves according to the technological progression in terms of density of CMOS integration (Complementary on - Silicon Metal) and MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) [4]. The need of spatial services has been a significant growth due to several factors such as population increases, telecommunication applications, climate changes, earth control and observation military goals, and so on. To cover this, spatial vehicle generations, specific calculators and Femto-cell systems have been developed. More recently, Ultra - Small Satellites (USS) have been proposed and different approaches, concerning developing of these kind of spatial systems, have been presented in literature. This miniature satellite is capable to fly in the space and to provide different services such as imagery, measures and communications [4, 9, 10]. This paper deals with the study of two different USS Femto-satellite architectures that exist in literature in order to propose a future architecture that can provide an optimization of power supply consumption and ameliorate service communication quality.

In the last few decades, a ne w generation of space mission architecture design is em erging in USS
In this paper we present the migration for the USS and we detail a probe of two FemtoSatellite approaches
Since the birth of integration technol ogy, with mixing of electric and mechanic systems known as MEMS approach, engineers and researchers of technology space opted a conceive; a satellite according to the miniaturization norms, for instance N-Prize [6]
Summary
In the last few decades, a ne w generation of space mission architecture design is em erging in USS. Solutions have been already proposed for optimization of complex distributed space mission architectures. To support such architectures, a novel approach, with a high volume production of Femto-Satellite less than 100g satellites-on-achip or satellite on board at low cost, is required. In this paper we present the migration for the USS and we detail a probe of two FemtoSatellite approaches. The paper concludes with roadmap of future researches required to realize a specific FemtoSatellite from Tunisia with COTS approach
