Telemetry data processing flow model: a case study

Abstract

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to develop the model of telemetry data processing flow (TDPF) for TDPF development and the TDPF run-time infrastructure to improve the spacecraft health monitoring capability. Design/methodology/approach -This research tries to develop the TDPF by flow-based programming (FBP) method and the component-based telemetry data processing software. Findings -The result from the case study is positive, thus reflecting the appropriateness of the suggested method. Practical implications -Application of the proposed TDPF model and the component-based telemetry data processing software may result in improved development efficiency and less development costs. Originality/value -This paper provides an effective way to develop TDPF without recompiling the software. It greatly facilitates the TDPF development that hopefully will save the TDPF development cost.
