The Purpose of ESA
•
ESA is an intergovernmental organisation with a mission to provide and
promote, for exclusively peaceful purposes:
– Space science, research and technology
– Space applications
•
ESA achieves this through:
–
–
–
–
space activities and programmes
long-term space policy
a specific industrial policy
coordinating European national space programmes

European Space Operations Centre
•
ESA has 17 Member States
•
Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland,
France, Germany, Greece,Ireland,
Italy, Luxembourg,Norway, the
Netherlands, Portugal, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United
Kingdom
•
Canada takes part in some projects
under a cooperation agreement

•
•
All Member States participate in activities and a common set of
programmes related to space science (mandatory programmes)
In addition, members choose their level of participation in the
following optional programmes:
–
–
–
–
–
–

Engineering Tools - Operations Preparation
• Mission Operations Information System (MOIS)
•Tool for operations procedures development and maintenace
• Editing, configuration control, traceability, document production
• I/F to satellite database (SCOS)
• Based on WINFOPS (Windows Flight Operations Procedures System) –
COTS (Microsoft Office) procedure generation tool
• Easy to use, familiarity, configurable (1-2 mm per mission)
• All current ESA (except Integral) and future missions based on MOIS
• Automation of sytem using PLUTO scripts
• Typical sizing:
ENVISAT 1700 procedures
ROSETTA 700 procedures

Engineering Tools - SCOS-2000
SCOS-2000 – Spacecraft Control Operations System supports all functions
needed to acquire, process, display and archive TM and to send and archive TCs:
• Runs on UNIX Platforms (SUN/Solaris or PC/LINUX)
• Modern layered architecture
• Supports packet TM and TC CCSDS standards and ESA PUS standard
• Highly scalable (from single WS or PC – ‚SCOS-2000 in a box‘, to complex
configuration with over tens of WS)
• Multi-mission support (constellations) – architecture design
- Studies eg. Related to Galileosat)
• Satellite check-out eg. Herschel-Planck
- Satellite level
- Instrument (P.I.) level

Simulator Infrastructure
Software Infrastructure for Modelling SATellites (SIMSAT)
• Dec/alpha VMS version currently used – phased out
• PC/Windows-NT version (current baseline)
• Move towards LINUX/PC version (2005-2006)
Generic models
• Customisable and re-usable
• Currently available models include: position and environment, 1750 processor
emulation, ERC32 emulation (all missions from Cryosat), power distribution, OBDH
protocol, packet TM encoding and TC decoding, ground station equipment
• Will be upgraded to support new simulator model portability standards in the near future
• Future: 64-bit Intel processor emulation
