This paper discusses a new approach to ADCS simulation and design that is consistent with applications based software components. By breaking the ADCS into component applications and using standard interfaces, both of which having been pre-defined in coordination with the software development team, a new paradigm in the development of ADCS software has been achieved. In order to meet quick development...
Embedded flight software (FSW) is often one of the larger costs of creating a spacecraft and while hardware must be procured for each vehicle that is developed, in theory, FSW can be reused. Reusing FSW not only reduces the development costs of multiple similar vehicles but can also help to reduce the integration time when individual FSW applications do not require unit level testing. If several FSW...
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) continues to develop infrastructure to enable the modular construction of satellites using an open network architecture and off-the-shelf avionics for space systems. Recent efforts have included the refinement of an ontology to formalize a standard language for the exchange of data and commands between components, including hardware and software, which is still...
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), in association with the Space Plug-and-play Architecture (SPA) program, has been developing the infrastructure to rapidly construct satellites using off-the-shelf avionics for space systems. One of the key enablers of rapid spacecraft assembly is the creation of a universal and standardized language for the exchange of data and commands between components,...
