What is BS EN 16603-50-04 - Telecommand protocols, synchronization, and channel coding about?
BS EN 16603-50-04 specifies the data structures and protocols for a telecommand space data link and the procedure for physical layer operation.
Usually, the source of data on a telecommand space data link is located on the ground and the receiver is located in space. However, BS EN 16603-50-04 may also be used for space-to-space telecommand data links.
Further provisions and guidance on the application of BS EN 16603-50-04 can be found, respectively, in the following documents:
The higher-level standard ECSS-E-ST-50 “Communications”, defines the principal characteristics of communication protocols and related services for all communication layers relevant for space communication (physical- to application-layer), and their basic relationship to each other.
The handbook ECSS-E-HB-50 “Communications guidelines”, provides information about specific implementation characteristics of these protocols to support the choice of a certain communications profile for the specific requirements of a space mission.
Users of BS EN 16603-50-04 are invited to consult these documents before making decisions on the implementation of the present one.
