Presentation to
Francisco Barreiro.- Engineering Director, Aerosp. Div.
Moscow30th June 2006
Interests & Objectives
To present:
TCP’s overall company capabilities and expertise (briefly)
TCP’s overall activities in the aerospace sector (briefly, also)
A brief summary of the results of Phase A activities conducted by TCP, within AE ESP2003-10799-E
TCP’s possible contribution and interests
TCP Sistemas e Ingeniería
TCP Sistemas e Ingeniería, S.L. is a Spanish independent company in the field of Software Engineering
The company was set up in 1992 by a group of professionals coming from the Informatics, Communications and Aerospace businesses
TCP’s headquarter is placed in Madrid (Spain). Besides, the company has offices in Valladolid (Spain), Ashburn (VA, USA) and Sao Paolo (Brazil)
Currently TCP employs nearly 300 highly skilled professionals (90% university graduates)
The Aeroespace Division represents aprox. a 10% of the company

Aerospace BU TCP’s expertise in the aerospace field started since the
company origin in 1993.
Presently, TCP’s Aerospace Division is formed by 25 engineers working in two main fields of activities:
On-board SW Ground Segment: Monitoring and Control (M&C) and
Tele-operation applications
Our main customers in this sector are ESA, specially ESOC, and EADS-CASA
On-board Software Our main fields of expertise in on-board SW are:
Real-Time Developments Safety-Critical Developments Testing: Test Harness Generation (THG) Certification (RTCA-DO/178B)
Specifically, TCP is working since 2004 in the development, implementation and validation of a adaptive flight control system for UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicles)
Other open areas in this field include autonomy systems for planetary missions, combining on- board capabilities of control, navigation, planning and autonomous decision making, with ground based capabilities
Ground Segment: M&C Systems
Stations Management: GMCT: General M&C Tools CSMC: Central Station M&C, allows automatic ground station control
and fully remote operations FEC-NT: Antenna Front-End Controller, ESA’s baseline for its EO and
DSN stations PPIU: Power Plant Interface Unit, provides station power plant M&C SDAS: Building installations supervisory systems

Mission requirements and assumptions
Telecommunications: L2 orbit (1.6-1.8MKm), 5 years nominal mission
15M antennas, in X-band
ESA’s X-b near-earth transponder (like Hershel-Plank)
Max. data rate downlink 1.5Mbps.
Data production rate: 32 Gbits per day.
8 hours/day for downloading the data Ground Stations under consideration:
o Argentina (Falda del Carmen)o P.R. China (Miyun)o Russia (Facilities TBC)o South Africa (Sat. Appli. Centre, CSIR)o Spain (Villafranca, ESA)
Mission requirements and assumptions
Other:
Minimize need of specific resources
Variable number of centres during the mission lifetime
Minimal requirements on architecture and communications infrastructure. Same configuration HW/SW in each layer
Distributed, international environment, ground segment distributed operations (scientific & mission)
Possible MOCs, SOCs role rotation
Up to 4 ground stations. Normal working hours operations, 2-3 hour-a-day per station
Ground Stations Technical Requirements
Functional requirements (15m antenna)
downlink: Xband. G/T=38Db/K
uplink: X band. EIRP=81dBW
ranging: required but not simultaneous TM rng
data rate: DL 1.5 Mbps / UL: 40/400 bps, 4kbps
data processing: CCSDS standard with Reed Solomon
and Viterbi coding
Modulation SCD mode, OQPSK or GMSK
S/No 70dBHz
BER 1E-5 or less. 5dB TM recovery
Ground Stations Technical Requirements
Cross support and interoperability:M&C: full station configuration and routine operations automationSLE services: RAF, RCF, CLTURaw data storage & archive Use of COTS
Design, implementation, maintenance ECSS recommendations and SLE compliance
Ground Stations Technical Requirements
General requirements on Ground Station Network Need of a GSN Management layer (1 to 4 stations co-
ordinated) to ensure 8 h continued operations (routine)
Primary and backup network TM on line real time transfer to MOC Science transfer via offline public network Support systems: operations automation and remote
operation. Coordination tools.
Network interface: consider co-located CCs or enough bandwith to fullfill on line comms.
Ground Stations Proposed baseline
Some TBDs:
Definition of G/S Service provision, to replace the requirement of identical HW/SW cfg (due to heterogeneous G/S)
WSO/UV mission service agreement
QoS TBD
Req. on G/S layer Coordination with MOC/SOC layer
Now some questions ...
Modifications of the space to ground IF ?
Ground Stations to consider ?
Modifications on ground segment concept ?
Communications infrastructure ?
International standards (SLE) assumed ?
... ?
