چکیده

The TEAMSAT dual spacecraft launched by the Ariane 502 test launch was completed in record time (7.5 months from goahead to delivery) and very low cost. The data handling system was ready to support final integration and testing in 6 months despite the fact it had to be designed and constructed from scratch. A vital element in this achievement was the availability of ESAs Telemetry (TM) and Telecommand (TC) chip set. This paper briefly outlines the spacecraft and its mission but with particular reference to the data handling system and the severe constraints under which it was developed.

Telecommand and Telemetry Components for Today and Tomorrow

The CCSDS Telecommand (TC) and Telemetry (TM) standards are today being employed for a large number of scientific and commercial spacecraft. Using this standard allows reduced costs for on-board, ground and test equipment, as well as for spacecraft testing and in-orbit operation. This paper introduces the CCSDS/ESA standards, and presents the supporting standard components developed by ESA and ...

Iterative Carrier Synchronization in the Absence of Distributed Pilots for Low Snr Applications

We consider the advanced modulation and coding schemes used in CCSDS (Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems) standards for deep space telemetry and telecommand. They are based on a powerful turbo or low-density parity check (LDPC) outer code and binary modulation formats that, for those schemes foreseen to be employed at the lowest baud rates, may contain an unsuppressed carrier to help...

A Component Framework for Satellite On-board Software

This paper advocates a new approach to satellite software design based on objectoriented framework technology and describes early results from a project for the European Space Agency (ESA) to design a software framework for satellite attitude and orbit control systems (AOCS). Frameworks are collections of components with pre-defined cooperations among them. They make architecture (as opposed to...
