One of the most challenging technical problems in the development of a spacecraft telemetry simulation is the interface with a flight computer running real-world flight software. The ability of the simulation to satisfy flight software requests for telemetry data, and to load, mode, and control the flight software along with the simulation, can be constrained or degraded using conventional interface solutions. Telemetry dataflow architecture systems can be utilized to solve the interface problems with less constraints. This is an especially attractive solution in a telemetry simulation where the telemetry system can also be used to format and serialize spacecraft telemetry, and receive and preprocess commands. This paper discusses the concepts developed for such a system for a training simulation of the Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle for NASA at Johnson Space Center.Sponsors
