BSS with Heterogeneous Ethernet Sources

Abstract

Nowadays, Telemetry Ground Station over a Range are all connected through Ethernet. Telemetry data can be dispatched from that layer to the Main Control Room. Nevertheless, Ethernet Protocols are so opened that the data transmitted can be heterogeneous (Throughput Ch10, Unpacked /Packed Synchronized data, PCM over Ethernet…). This paper describes an architecture based on a three layers software (Proprietary Layer, Software Frame Sync, and BSS) to manage BSS with these heterogeneous Ethernet sources. The assets (Test Range flexibility, low cost, easy upgrade) & the backwards (Encrypted data mismatch) with practical cases are also described.
