Description
A diversity of topics are being investigated by ESA via Discovery & Preparation undertakings, one of them is related to new working methodologies as
it is the Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). MBSE can be defined as the application of modelling to support system requirements management, design, analysis, verification and validation activities from conceptual design phase to the development and later life cycle phases. One key aspect is the digital continuity between disciplines.
Taking SAVOIR background as inputs (Functional Reference Architecture, Generic OBC Functional Specification, RTU Functional and Operability Requirements) this project demonstrates, focusing on Data Handling Subsystem and using a MBSE tool (Capella) how to:
- identify needs from solutions
- import external requirements (needs) in a MBSE tool
- trace requirements to functional components
- trace functional components to one or more physical components (solutions)
- finally, how documentation can be generated from the model
At the end of the project a practical example of Model-Based engineering (in opposite to Document-Based engineering) will be available, serving as a solid base for further Model-Based engineering activities related to space avionics around the Data Handling Subsystem.
