[Smwg] Draft Presentation for the Trajectory Prediction Data Format Recommended Standard

Wed Aug 13 13:57:47 UTC 2014

Jessica,
The attached is a class diagram for my rough idea of how the Blue-1 containment-based Trajectory Prediction Information Entity will morph into an extensible class-based TP. Apologes for not getting it out sooner than 3 minutes before the telecon ...

Best regards,
John

Thanks to Erik and John for their feedback. Although I had read the green book a while ago, I admit I have forgotten more of it then I retained. I will compare what I've generated to that material and incorporate the information from Erik before tomorrow's discussion.

Regards,

Jessica

It just occurred to me that some of our newer WG members may have never read the Concept Green Book for version 1 SCCS-SM, Space Communication Cross Support-Service Management-Operations Concept (http://public.ccsds.org/publications/archive/910x14g1.pdf). Section 3.7 of that Green Book lays out the various use cases and scenarios for trajectory predictions, and provides the background for the presence and use of the various parameters of the Trajectory Prediction operation.  I think that this is very useful reading to understand how the Blue-1 TP operations (which are our starting point for the current work in this area) came into being. (I'm a bit embarrassed that I had not thought to mention this book sooner.)

Best regards,
John

Jessica,

Thanks for putting the first draft/cut together of the presentation. A couple of comments that may help to answer some of your questions:

1)      The business about existing trajectory reference and new trajectory reference have to do with the apply-new-trajectory operation in the current 1 specification. And in fact those were operations related to the application of a new trajectory to a service package  -- i.e., they are service package related items and really not trajectory related items. For the purpose of developing an extensible specification with regard to handling input of trajectory predictions I think then that this kind of stuff can be safely omitted from a the future trajectory prediction book. It seems like it will have to be dealt with by the service package request book.  (But let's see what the WG has to say.)

2)      It strikes me that there probably are two main aspects for extensibility with regard to trajectory predictions. The first one, which I think is the easiest to deal with, is with regard to allowing different formats to be specified. So in that regard the bilateral format definition probably stays in here and is part of a general extension point with regard to expressing data formats. The other extensibility point is more about the implied usage of the trajectory data. I think there are two sub-cases here:

a.       The extended trajectory prediction operation in the current blue-1. This may indeed need more of an examination/cross-check as perhaps it goes away since we are not doing a trajectory prediction handling service. Then again we may need something in here to at least indicate the relationship of the information even though we don't really state how you do the extension (good discussion for the working group I think).

b.      The other sub-case is where bits and pieces of trajectories are "layered" to achieve an effective/net trajectory prediction. The classic example here is a mission or a flight dynamics operation that will tell you what the spacecraft trajectory is relative to a satellite/moon of a planet and another trajectory segment will tell you the orbit of the moon to the planet and another trajectory segment will tell you the orbit of the planet with regard to the solar system barycenter such that you can finally figure out where it is you really point your antenna, etc.   I think this is likely to be good extension point from a data format perspective.

Best regards,

-Erik

Greetings,

It's a bit tardy, but here's my first cut at the draft materials for the Trajectory Prediction Data Format Recommended Standard. I ended up having quite a few questions, and made notes of a lot of them right on the UML diagram that was generated. I also included a few on a separate slide. I look forward to getting your feedback on the attached materials.

Regards,

Jessica
