Abstract
This document is the TRL5 report according to Technology readiness level 5 (TRL-5) Space Standard for the FP7 MAGDRIVE project.
According Space Standards the Technology readiness level 5 (TRL 5) shall be demonstrated by the delivery of a prototype whose performance has to be validated through testing in the relevant environment subject to scaling effects (if any).
For a TRL 5 the level of maturity of the Breadboard to be provided shall be that of an Engineering model (EM). An EM is a full scale high-fidelity unit that demonstrates critical aspects of the engineering processes involved in the development of the
operational unit. It has to be representative of the future operational system in form, fit and function, without full redundancy and high reliability parts.
