ESA (C&S WG chair)took the action to write a pink sheet to optionally add the CRC-16 to the space packet.ESA will circulate the draft pink sheets for #1 and #2 to the following joint WG members representing their member agencies for concurrence via email and eventual submission to Agency Review:a. Matt Cosby – BNSC, b. G.P. Calzolari – ESA, c. T. Yamada – JAXA, d. Greg Kazz - NASA/JPL, e. Tim Ray - NASA/GSFC, f. Gilles Moury - CNES

  27. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-SLP WG (cnt’d) • Problems and Issues: • See cross-area issues

  28. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-SLP WG (cnt’d) • Planning : • Provide final copies of these Green books to the CCSDS Secretariat within 2 months: • Overview of Space Communication GB – Takahiro Yamada • Space Data Link Protocol GB – Takahiro Yamada • Space Packet Protocol GB – Takahiro Yamada • Proximity-1 Space Link Protocol – Greg Kazz • The SLP WG will be set idle upon publication of these 4 GBs and reactivated as soon as firm requirements from Mars BOF, Cislunar WG and Wireless BOF as well as from other sources (e.g. Space wireless workshop, agencies programmes, …) are available.

  29. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-SLP WG (cnt’d) • Resolutions : • Res4 to request the Prox-1 GB be published as Version 1.0 Greenbook • Res5 to request the a) Space Data Link protocol and b) Space Data Communications Protocol be published as a) new green book and as b) an updated GB • Res6 to request the Space Packet GB be published as a new Green book

  30. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-TCC: Telecommand Channel Coding WG (1 of 2) • Goal: Development of a Telecommand Channel Coding Green Book. • Working Group Status: Suspended. • Working Group Summary Situation: • Working Group Summary progress : • See next slide

  31. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-TCC: Telecommand Channel Coding WG (2 of 2) • Working Group Summary progress: • Green Book CCSDS 230.1-G-1: published. • Technical Corrigendum to BB 231: published. • In Colorado the WG supported the High Rate Uplink (HRU) WG Meeting • Working Group Future: • WG Members are expected to continue contributing/monitoring the HRU work. • The WG will reactivate based on input task by HRU WG.

  32. AREA REPORT • RNG WG • Goal: issue blue book on novel ranging techniques • Working Group Status: Active • Working Group Summary Situation:

  33. RNG WG (cnt’d) Working Group Summary progress: Current status: PN Ranging White Issue 2 book revised Out of the 7 codes from previous issue, only 2 remain in present release, selected for two different regenerative ranging scenarios Discussion continues on two codes for transparent ranging Missing transparent simulation as well as hardware test results expected by July 2007 Future work/charter: Future work continues as per charter – 3 months delay needed due to delay with bread-boarding contract; Red book new due date October 2007 RNG WG charter updated (3 months’ delay) • SLS AREA REPORT

  34. SLS AREA REPORT • High Rate Uplink WG • Goal: • Address the high rate uplink requirements as requested by the IOAG. • Provide technical recommendations in the areas of RF&Modulation, Coding, and Link Layer protocols in support of the Lunar Exploration Missions and extension to deep space. • WG Status: Active X Idle ____ • WG Summary Situation: No definition of CCSDS HRU Requirements.

  35. SLS AREA REPORT • HRU WG (cnt’d) • WG Summary progress: • NASA presented HRU related “requirements” from Project Constellation. From a CCSDS perspective, these look more like solutions. • Fabrizio Pollara (NASA/JPL) provided an update (additional performance data) on the three uplink coding scenarios presented at the Rome meeting.

  36. SLS AREA REPORT • High Rate Uplink WG (cnt’d) • Problems and Issues: • Each Agency needs to present its mission scenarios associated with high rate uplinks • NASA claims it has these scenarios but cannot yet share them with other space agencies until management approval is given. • ESA will investigate whether preliminary scenarios are available from the AURORA programme. • A set of CCSDS high rate uplink related requirements has yet to be defined. • The deadline given to the WG of End of Year 2007 for a blue book is deemed very hard to achieve given these constraints.

  37. SLS AREA REPORT • High Rate Uplink WG (cnt’d) • Planning : • Action item on each participating agency: CNES, ESA, NASA, JAXA to circulate its mission scenarios concerning high rate uplink by April 2007 • Res9: IOAG to provide mission/systems requirements for High Rate Uplink more detailed than those available with IOAG Res 8.7.1.

  38. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-LEC: Long Erasure Codes (‘tornado codes’) BOF (1 of 2) • Goal: Make, if conclusive, a proposal for the creation of a WG on application of long erasure-correction codes. • BOF Status : Active (extended till end of 2007) • BOF Summary Situation: • Working Group Summary progress: • NASA and ESA reports presented. Technical progress positive. • Future: see next slide

  39. SLS AREA REPORT • SLS-LEC: Long Erasure Codes (‘tornado codes’) BOF (2 of 2) • Working Group Summary progress: • Difficulties in having right perception by other Areas felt. This is an important issue since the implied coding solutions would penetrate also into higher layers data structures (e.g. post –pass recovery of “erased” frames or packets). Confirmed. • The targets below for better inter-area discussion shall be finalized in the Darmstadt meeting (October 2007): • Production of profiles addressing: • Scenario with limited number of erasures; • Scenario with High number of erasures; • Intermediate scenario. • Design, for the profiles above, of LEC solutions addressing both: • Approach at Frame level (i.e. constant length input data) • Approach at (Space/CFDP) Packet level (i.e. variable length input data).

  40. A PICS (Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement) was requested by the SIS area Mars BOF to be defined for the 3 books of Prox-1, as identified by the Mars BOF. SLS proposes that SLS-SLP WG adopts this task as an update to the charter. Lunar/Mars missions. New needs may not be covered by Prox-1. New needs are to be identified. Upgrade of Prox-1 (?), development of Prox-2 (?). Inter-areas coordination to be put in place with SIS (Cislunar WG, Mars BOF) and SOIS (Wireless BOF). Space Packet Protocol: part of SIS or SLS? • SLS AREA REPORT Cross-area technical issue
