Traditional threshold-based monitoring approaches fall short in capturing subtle, multivariate, and time-dependent anomalies inherent in satellite telemetry. This case study explores the application of machine learning (ML) techniques for anomaly detection in CubeSat telemetry, with a focus on evaluating recent research supported by publicly released benchmark datasets: OPSSAT‑AD and ESA‑ADB. These datasets provide real-world, labelled telemetry from operational ESA missions and have enabled systematic benchmarking of over 30 machine learning models. The study synthesises model performance across metrics such as F1-score and AUC, highlighting that temporal models like LSTMs and temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) consistently outperform classical methods in time-series tasks. Limitations in dataset continuity, anomaly sparsity, and generalisability are discussed, along with the need for explainable and resource-efficient models suitable for onboard deployment. The case concludes with a call for expanded benchmark datasets, real-time validation, and cross-disciplinary collaboration to ensure robust, interpretable, and mission-ready anomaly detection systems for future CubeSat applications.  \nTable of Contents  \n1.

Introduction  \nThe aviation industry is under increasing pressure to decarbonize as part of the global response to climate change. CubeSats are a class of miniaturized satellites based on a standardized unit size of 10 × 10 × 10 cm (1U), initially developed to support low-cost access to space for academic institutions [1] . Over the last decade, CubeSats have evolved from simple educational tools into sophisticated platforms for Earth observation, scientific experiments, and commercial applications. Their modular design, low development cost, and rapid deployment capabilities have made them popular among space agencies, research institutions, and startups [2] .  \nFigure 1 OPS-SAT CubeSat [3]  \n* School of Aerospace, Transport and Management, Cranfield University: Cran","cbCaivXHnVMqoUQ5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivXHnVMqoUQ5","pdf",765449,1,10,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Traditional Vs.
