  2. OUTLINE • Introduction • Command Systems • Telemetry Systems • Data Processing and Storage • Cases Study

  3. INTRODUCTION • Command and Telemetry • providing information to and from the spacecraft, respectively • computer-based components in the spacecraft (S/C) and at terrestrial sites • commands are used to provide the info to change the state of the S/C subsystems and to set to S/C clock • telemetry subsystem collects and processes a variety of data to be transmitted from the S/C

  4. INTRODUCTION (Cont.) • Data Processing and Handling • 3 major tasks on board • to help control and configure the S/C • to optimize the overall system performance • to process data for transmission • a major onboard processor and possibly multiple dedicated processors for various subsystems are used to enhance S/C performance and reliability. • ROM and RAM are used with RAM changeable through the command system • S/C data storage media: flash memory, SSR, etc • software written in machine, assembly, or high level language • I/O and other peripherals

  5. COMMAND SYSTEMS • Purpose • to permit the spacecraft or its subsystem to be reconfigured in response to radio signals send up to the S/C from ground • Operation • receive the signals, • decide what they mean, • and then respond accordingly so that the desired reconfiguration takes place • The command system has a vital role in the overall operation of the S/C

  6. GENERALIZED SPACECRAFT COMMAND SYSTEM Receiver/ Demodulator Command Decoder Command Logic Interface Circuitry Block Diagram of a generalized command system Receiver/Demodulator: amplify the signal captured, demodulate the command (cmd) message, deliver the encoded subcarrier signal message to the cmd decoder Command Decoder: decode the message to reproduce the original cmd message, which consists of a serial digital binary of 1s’ & 0s’ Command Logic: validate the cmd message, drive the I/F circuitry by executing the cmd Interface Circuitry: might be simple or complex functions

  9. TELEMETRY SYSTEMS • Telemeter: to measure from a distance • Functions: to provide remote indication of what the desired measurements are • Telemetry data: • Status data - S/C resources, health, attitude, operation mode • Scientific data gathered by onboard sensor- magnetometers, thermometers, etc… • SpecificS/C orbit and timing data– used for guidance and navigation by ground, sea or air vehicles • Image data - captured by onboard camera • Other data - locations of other objects, relayed telemetry data from other satellites

SPACECRAFT TELEMETRY SYSTEM ACQUISITION Sensors Conditioners Selectors Converters PROCESSING Compressors Formatters Storage TRANSMISSION Encoder Modulator Transmitter Antenna Block Diagram of a spacecraft telemetry system Acquisition: The acquisition of data is accomplished using sensors, signal conditioners, data selectors and A/D converters. Processing: The data are processed in the telemetry system processor or in the smart sensor instrument’s resident processor. Transmission: as discussed in TT&C

  12. SPACECRAFT DATA HANDLING衛星本體的資料處理 • Spacecraft data processing and storage require the use of space-qualified microcomputers, memories, and interface devices. • Unlike the devices that are used in desk-top PC, S/C applications impose design constrains that are much more severe. • Low power dissipation, volume, and mass must be achieved without sacrificing overall performance. • S/C systems must exhibit excellent reliability and should be able to tolerate many kind of faults.

  13. SPACECRAFT DATA HANDLING SYSTEM CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT PROCESSOR DATA BUS MEMORY: ROM, RAM, Special- purpose MASS STORAGE INPUT/OUTPUT PORTS BUS INTERFACE SPACECRAFT DATA BUS

  14. CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT • One or more processing units have access to various kinds of memory, mass storage, and input/output devices • Job of the processing unit • execute the program that is stored in memory, interpret and execute commands received from the S/C command system. • maintain system status and health data (housekeeping data) and format the data for transmission to the S/C telemetry system.

  15. CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (cont.) • The processing unit receives its instructions from a program stored in memory and communicates with its data sensors and other processors in the S/C through various kinds of I/O channels or over the S/C data bus. • The processing unit may elect to delegate some of its tasks to special purpose peripheral processors that then execute the delegated subtasks in parallel with the execution of its own tasks.

  16. FLIGHT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT • Code development for embedded real-time processor using assembly and high-level language. • The program must be error-free for the S/C data handling system. • Employing computer science to design and implement the algorithms and data structure. • Applying software engineering approachto the design and maintenance of the software product.

  17. FLIGHT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT (cont.) • The quality of the up-front conceptual design of the flight software will determine the success of software engineering. • The problem introduced early in the design phase will be the most expensive problem. • The costly problem is caused by correct implementation of a poor conceptual design, not by an incorrectly implementation of a good conceptual design.

  18. OTHER DATA HANDLING COMPONENTS • Memory: Read-Only-Memory (ROM), Random-Access Memory (RAM), Flash Memory. • Mass Storage: disk, digital tape, solid state memory, magneto-optical disks, memory IC. • Input/Output: I/O Ports, direct memory access (DMA), multi-port memory, interrupts, timers, bus interface. • Fault Tolerance: radiation harness, single event upsets, CMOS latch-up, parity, error detection/correction, watchdog timer, etc… • Custom, Special-Purpose Peripherals: data acquisition, data compression, image processing. • Spacecraft Autonomy: the ability to monitor S/C internal functions and take appropriate actions without direct intervention from the ground.

ROCSAT-1 CASE STUDY • A low-earth orbiting (LEO) satellite jointly developed by TRW of U.S. with a resident team of NSPO engineers. • Launched on January 27, 1999 into an orbit of 600 kilometers altitude and 35 degrees inclination. • Three scientific research missions/Payloads: • ocean color imaging/OCI, • experiments on ionospheric plasma and electrodynamics /IPEI, • experiments using Ka-band (20-30 GHz) communication payloads/ECP.
