Description
Exploration missions are in all cases expeditionary by nature, but are as well expeditionary in terms of technology. They require specific solutions both in platform and payload that will be a novelty in the frame of space technology. As well the context and environment of these missions will make them unique and may involve a specific approach to many avionic functions as per FDIR.
In the recent years avionics for space community is progressing towards several areas of interest as: increased processing capabilities, harmonization, building blocks based designs or modelling techniques. In terms of FDIR function within a spacecraft all of these need to be considered as enablers to increase FDIR performance and capabilities. FDIR concepts and solutions to be provided in the frame of the exploration missions will need to have into account all these enablers when being proposed and developed.
This presentation is intended on the one hand to provide an overview of these exploration missions’ key points regarding FDIR strategy. On the other hand the presentation will provide an insight on the current status and trends of FDIR approaches and into the way forward in terms of FDIR solutions.
