What is BS EN 16603-60-21 - Gyros terminology and performance specification about ?
BS EN 16603-60-21 specifies gyros functions and performances as part of a space project. BS EN 16603-60-21 covers aspects of functional and performance metrics for the performance specification of spaceborne gyros.
BS EN 16603-60-21 focuses on functional and performance specifications with the exclusion of mass and power, TM/TC interface and data structures.
BS EN 16603-60-21 is split in three main clauses:
- Terminology (clause 3)
- Functional requirements (clause 4)
- Performance requirements (clause 5)
Note: BS EN 16603-60-21 does not cover gyro use for launch vehicles.
Note: BS EN 16603-60-21 does not contain textbook material on gyro technology. The readers and the users are assumed to possess general knowledge of gyro technology and its applications to space missions.
