Abstract:
In this work, we present sensing performance using an architecture for a reconfigurable protocol chip for spacebased applications. Toward utilizing the IP packet architecture,
utilizing data link layer framing structures for multiplexed data on a channel are the targeted application considered for
demonstration purposes. Specifically, we examine three common framing standards and present the sensing performance of these standards and their relative de-correlation metrics. Some analysis is performed to investigate the impact of lossy links. Finally, we present results on a demonstration platform that integrated reconfigurable sensing technology into the
Ground Station Interface Device (GRID) for End-to-End IP demonstrations in space.
