[Reinert, Jessica (GRC-LSA0)]

Greetings,

As a part of the May 5 telecom, we discussed whether or not the bilateralTrajectorySegment class should be explicitly defined as a subclass within the TrajectoryPredictionInformation. During the spring meeting two options had been proposed: either retaining this subclass or just mentioning the potential use of a bilaterally agreed upon format in place of the defined ccsdsTrajectorySegment.

During the telecom I believe it was agreed that we should go with the latter option of mentioning the use of a bilateral trajectory segment within the text, but not defining the class. The standard header trajectoryPredictionInformation and the Service Management Standard Header are still required if a bilaterally agreed upon format is used.

There is a potential that new CCSDS Standard Trajectory segments will be defined by the Navigation Data Group, in addition to those currently defined, the use of a bilaterally agreed upon format will be mentioned in the document when this potential is mentioned.

Any suggestions or clarification regarding this matter are appreciated.

Regards,

Jessica
