[CESG] SEA Resolution SEA-R-2016-09-001: Request Agency Review for publication of revised CCSDS SCID Code Assignment Control Procedures

[Shames, Peter M (312B)]

Dear CCSDS Secretariat,

Please find attached the SEA resolution concerning the request for Agency Review for publication of the revised CCSDS SCID Code Assignment Control Procedures Magenta Book.  The major changes are the inclusion of frequency band bins for allocation of Qualified SCID (Q-SCID), references to the new registries defined in the RMP, and re-classifying the document as a Magenta Book based upon its type.

This fixes all of the conditions raised in the earlier CESG vote and the CMC feedback that we also received.   There are no remaining conditions that I am aware of aside from the one requesting that this document be given an Agency review because it is a major change to a key document and has an effect on the Agency procedures for requesting and relinquishing SCIDs.    In accordance with one CMC condition it does not require the specification of uplink and downlink frequencies, but it does require correct specification of the uplink and downlink frequency bands, aligned to the actual frequency ranges and not just to some colloquial use of, for example, "K-band" when the actual frequency in use falls into the X-band range.

Thanks, Peter

The System Engineering Area,

CONSIDERING that:

The SEA SANA Steering Group (SSG) has produced a revision of the existing Blue Book called the CCSDS GLOBAL SPACECRAFT IDENTIFIER FIELD:
CODE ASSIGNMENT CONTROL PROCEDURES (CCSDS 320.0-B-6), and that
The source document, CCSDS 320.0-B-1, was originally directly published as a CMC Blue Book document, and that
The specific major changes to the document have already been reviewed and agreed to by the CESG and CMC, and that
All of the requested updates have been made to satisfy the identified conditions.

And RECOGNIZING that:

A CCSDS Area Director is responsible for requesting CESG concurrence prior to publication, and that
The CCSDS Organization and Processes (A02.1-Y-4 cor 2) in Section 6.2.2.2 requests that the AD forward the draft documents to the CESG, and
notify the Chief Technical Editor.

And RECOGNIZING that:

The CCSDS Organization and Processes (A02.1-Y-4 cor 2) in Section 6.1.4.3 defines this type of book (a process or procedure description) as a Magenta Book, and that
Sec 6.2.7 requires periodic review and re-confirmation of Normative Track documents.

RESOLVES to request:

That the Chief Technical Editor ready the document for review, and that
The document be re-classified as a Magenta Book, to properly characterize it based on its contents, and that
The Secretariat create the necessary CESG poll to request the CESG review and approve release of this document for Agency Review, and that
Once the CESG poll succeeds that the CMC be polled to approve the document for Agency Review.
