Presentation Transcript

  1. Deployment • Time to execute pre-launch sequence - • Spin up reaction wheels and get initial attitude and position from Shuttle if possible. • Turn on receiver, if it is not already. • After release • Deploy antennas • Initialize GNC stabilization algorithms • Diagnostics for GNC and Power

  2. Deployment • After release (conti..) • Initial other subsystem algorithms as necessary • When stabilization is achieved • Record all initial attitude and diagnostic data to memory • Wait for initial command sequence from TTC • Execute GNC tasks as necessary

  3. Downlink • Receive contact signal from TTC • Give Bus control to TNC • Note: A pipelined bus might be necessary to achieve 2 Mbit/s data rate • Wait for bus release from TNC.

  4. Laser Communication • Receive signal from LCS circuitry that data is ready to be sent • Receive packet, compute checksum, accept or resend (if Tx is available) • Send verification record to groundstation on next pass.

  5. Lightning observation • Receive lightning observation command from Science circuitry. • Execute any GNC algorithms necessary • Wait to receive Science data via the data bus or DMA • Note: The method of data movement depends on the amount of data (i.e. Low=data bus; High=DMA)

  6. GNC • Receive request from GNC for algorithm execution • Execute the requested algorithm. • If algorithm is ended when a certain position is reached, not depending on time then monitor GNC and set a standard time of execution. • If algorithm is ended on execution time, set watchdog timer.

  7. GNC (conti) • After execution, record new attitude information to memory
