Description
On-board processing gained an ever increasing acceptance within the last twenty years. To an increasing extend payload data will be processed, formatted, analysed, compressed and encrypted on-board – new features and functionality will be transferred to the spacecraft. The dramatic augmentation of processing performance even add to this momentum. The functional spectrum spans from motor control to image processing, cryptography or data interpretation, on-board activities. In this context, after a long development period between Airbus GmbH and ISD S.A. the high performance data processor (HPDP) has become a reality and the first tests have already been performed. In the past years, several tests with different kinds of algorithms have been run to evaluate the performance of the HPDP. This paper presents both the summary of activities up to present time and results of tests performed.
