Functional Analysis of Software-Defined Radio Baseband for Satellite Ground Operations

摘要

This paper presents functional analysis and system specifications of a baseband system using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. The analysis is primarily based on the latest blue-book standards from the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS). It covers telemetry, telecommand, and ranging, as well as some specifications of the associated physical layers. The SDR-based baseband system is envisioned to support ground operations in the form of a software-as-a-Service (SaaS) private cloud.
