  • Abstract
    This paper presents research results on multijunction solar cell technologies for space. It also presents a compilation of the steps that have been followed until now in the design of a photovoltaic panels prototype according to the physical, electrical and financial requirements in the pico-satellite Cubesat Colombia 1, developed for the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas.
