What is BS EN 16603-50-01 - Telemetry synchronization and channel coding about?
BS EN 16603-50-01 is a standard on space engineering that discusses telemetry synchronization and channel coding.
The specification under BS EN 16603-50-01 does not attempt to quantify the relative coding gain or the merits of each scheme, nor the design requirements for encoders or decoders.
However, some application profiles are discussed in Annex D. Performance data for the coding schemes specified in BS EN 16603-50-01 can be found in CCSDS 130.1-G-1. Annexe G describes the related mission configuration parameters.
Further provisions and guidance on the application of BS EN 16603-50-01 can be found in the following publications:
- ECSS-E-ST-50, Communications, which 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 16603-50-01 are invited to consult these documents before making decisions on the implementation of the present one.
Who is BS EN 16603-50-01 - Telemetry synchronization and channel coding for?
BS EN 16603-50-01 on telemetry synchronization and channel coding is relevant to:
- Space product manufacturers
- Design engineers
- Space project managers
- Quality compliance personnel
Why should you use BS EN 16603-50-01 - Telemetry synchronization and channel coding?
The telemetry channel coding is a method of processing data that is sent from a source to a destination so that distinct messages are created that are easily distinguishable from one another and thus enable the reconstruction of the data with low error probability, thus improving the performance of the channel.
Guidelines under BS EN 16603-50-01 guide you regarding convolutional codes, reed-Solomon coding, turbo coding, frame synchronization and Pseudo-randomizer for building an efficient space telemetry channel coding system.
Compliance to BS EN 16603-50-01, you can establish a common implementation of space telemetry channel coding systems.
