CCSDS Missions

Separation of Huygens from Cassini; ESA-D. Ducros 2004 |

The table below lists missions known to be using
CCSDS-recommended protocols. For the missions
listed, CCSDS protocol use ranges from CCSDS Version
1 Transfer Frames for telemetry (early missions) to
the full suite of conventional and/or Advanced
Orbiting Systems (AOS) telemetry and
telecommand protocols.
Many of these missions also follow CCSDS
Recommendations for data archiving, Space Link
Extension (SLE) services, Time Code Formats, and
Lossless Data Compression; the majority conform to
CCSDS Recommendations for Radio Frequency and
Modulation Systems.
The table is a product
of a compilation of information gathered from
several sources. In many cases, information was
obtained from requirements, design, and
interface-control documents prepared for individual
missions. Reports and technical papers discussing
use of CCSDS-recommended standards in particular
missions, mission-related Web pages, and CCSDS
agency reports to the CCSDS Management Council were
also consulted. Where no documents were available,
information was obtained through discussions with
mission personnel.

|
|
1 |
Launch
dates for future missions are volatile,
and some of the projected dates shown in
the table may no longer be consistent
with current mission planning. |
|
2 |
For
telecommunications satellites, use of
CCSDS protocols is generally limited to
spacecraft command and control. |
