Future Needs and Requirements for On-Board Data Processing
- Mathieu Albinet (CNES)
NASA’s Office of the Chief Technologist has recently developed a set of Strategic Technology Roadmaps that call out the need for more capable on-board flight computing. Future missions will necessitate robust and reliable on-board computing elements to execute the functions of pinpoint landing and hazard avoidance, and rendezvous-proximity operations-capture. The success if these types of...
An overview of the evolution of digital needs for satcom. From past and current CNES activities in the field, the impact of the new possibilities offered by digital products on payload architecture and telecom missions is presented.
The presentation aims to highlight the trends and future technology needs for the on board Earth Observation data processing.
Starting from trends of actual and planned ESA Earth observation missions, the presentation will analyze the future needs and technologies to support Earth Observation Program of the European Space Agency.
Abstract— Space robotics covers a wide field of applications. It ranges form exploration tasks (robotic vehicle with measuring equipment [1]) to servicing or maintenance tasks (on-orbit servicing or deorbiting of satellites [2], [3]). These tasks comprise different grades of autonomy from telepresence scenarios [4] to semi autonomous supporting task [3] to completely autonomous applications....
New space applications and technologies induce a significant increase of the on-board data processing Performance requirements while low power consumptions remains a constraint and reconfigurability becomes a must. These assigned targets for future space data processors can not only rely only on classsical rad-hard devices as mostly developped so far. To cover the needs of the different future...
The JUpiter ICy moon Explorer (JUICE) spacecraft will provide a thorough investigation of the Jupiter system in all its complexity with emphasis on the three potentially ocean-bearing Galilean satellites, Ganymede, Europa and Callisto, and their potential habitability.
The JUICE spacecraft will carry a powerful remote sensing, geophysical, and in situ payload complement consisting of 10...
