  8. DTN Status • NASA has heavily invested in space internetworking based on DTN • Flight validation experiments • Epoxi Spacecraft (Deep Space) 2008 • ISS based payload 2009 • Adopted by CCSDS in 2008 • General agreement that this is a promising technology but different views on maturity • Open Issues • Routing policies design and evaluation • Security concerns • Compatibility with space protocols ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  9. Previous Work by DUTH for ESOC • Project: Extending Internet into Space • Phase 1 • Produce a design directive for space internetworking • Phase 2 • Design an appropriate DTN/IP Space-Ground Testbed and associated scenarios for evaluation, mainly targeting Mars communications • Phase 3 • Evaluate CFDP versus DTN • Enhance DTN in the context of space internetworking (routing, reliability) • DTN Security Mechanisms • Prof. Tsaoussidis is ESA Delegate in the CCSDS DTN Working Group ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  10. Study Logic ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  11. Application Scenario Groups to Study • Extending End-User Access to Space Data • CHRIS Hyperspectral Data from PROBA-1 Satellite • AVHRR Images from POES/NOAA Satellites • Exploiting/Disseminating Data from Deep Space • OMEGA Hyperspectral Data from ESA/Mars Express • OSIRIS Image Data from ESA/Rosetta • Acquisition/Delivery of Vast Volumes of Data • ESA Sentinels • Exploiting Thematic Cross-Mission Data • Space Weather / Sun-Earth Connection • Urban Heat Islands and Urban Thermography ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  12. Expected Impact of DTN - SDR • PROBA-1, POES/NOAA • Extension of end-user’s access to data • Increase of data acquisition frequency • Increase of data downloading rate • ESA/Mars Express, ESA/Rosetta • Elimination of data loss and increase of data volume received • Increase of access speed to deep space data • ESA/Sentinels • Acquisition, management and efficient dissemination of large volumes of data • Multiple Missions • Real-time access to data from multiple missions • Successful acquisition of data even under hostile communication conditions • Improved interconnection between ground and space assets ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  13. Example: Urban Heat Islands (1/2) ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers

  14. Example: Urban Heat Islands (2/2) Current problems: • Different location of data. Even for the same sensor/mission the data location differs for “real-time” and “on demand” use. • “Real-time” is only ensured when the receiving station is within ISARS. Any other route means “near real-time” (even hours of delay), which means that any future service based on this data cannot be given in real time. Expected impact using SDR • The application allows for data gathering from multiple missions for one scientific objective. • Advanced protocols allow for successful data transmission even in harsh/challenged communication conditions. • Depending on the mission, better interconnection between space and ground assets • Data can be transferred to other DTN nodes in Space before being dumped in Earth when direct delivery is not possible • Ensure real time data acquisition.

  19. Conclusions • Objectives of the SDR Project is to investigate how DTN can support scientific users • Space Data Routers are devices for routing of space data not only in space but also on ground, providing unified communication channels for dissemination of space data • Expected Capabilities to be analysed • Extension of end-user access to space data; • Improved exploitation of data from deep space • Efficient delivery of vast volumes of data to end-users over terrestrial internetworks • Potential of DTN overlays to administer thematic cross-mission space data ESAW 2011 - Space Data Routers
