SpaceWire Satellite Usage

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA579510 | Open PDF

Abstract:

SpaceWire represents the most recent interface standard insertion in spacecraft computing interfaces since the widespread spacecraft adoption of CompactPCI in command and data handling systems. This paper reviews how SpaceWires fabric based topologies are applied as a telemetry and control interface in spacecraft with discussions of hardware implementations, performance and power. SpaceWire usage in various standards including the upcoming Next Generation Space Interface Standard NGSIS is discussed.
