  7. Abstract:
  8. The case of rapid small satellite aerial launch by mother airplane has various applications; such as space experiment, weather monitoring, and getting information from the earth monitoring during natural disasters. In this method, the satellite and the launch vehicle will be carried up by mother airplane to the definite height; then, the launch vehicle will be released and flied - to the insert of satellite into the desired orbit. Aerial launch system success depends on a set of complex elements and their interactions. In the present study, first of all, the element interactions will be investigated by system engineering approach based on operational scenarios; then, a new approach for system analysis will be introduced based on decision making methods. This approach would transform real complex world to the engineering model based on the element interaction modes and sensitivity. This analytical model will be used for “the construction of Design Structure Matrix” in the process of system design and mission. Based on this matrix, critical activities of system designing would be illuminated; and the system designer will be able to find system design critical functions by the analysis of elements interactions
