Evaluating Performance of Real-time Software Components: Satellite Ground Control Station Case Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new approach to evaluating performance of real-time component based software by introducing a new measure called software sensitivity. The measure is based on the evaluation of relative changes in the number of missed deadlines when their lengths are being decreased. Experimental results were obtained for the satellite ground control station’s tracking component developed at the Florida Space Institute.

A Virtual Ground Station Based on Distributed Components for Satellite Communications
Communication with Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites requires the set up of a ground station which is a complex and costly installation. Moreover, a LEO satellite is accessible only during certain time slots from a given ground station. In other words, access to LEO satellites is on an intermittent basis and is constrained by the availability of ground stations. The work presented in this paper ...
متن کاملFault Strike Detection Using Satellite Gravity Data Decomposition by Discrete Wavelets: A Case Study from Iran
Estimating the gravity anomaly causative bodies boundary can facilitate the gravity field interpretation. In this paper, 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed as a method to delineate the boundary of the gravity anomaly sources. Hence, the GRACE’ satellite gravity data is decomposed using DWT. DWT decomposites a single approximation coefficients into four distinct components: the appr...
متن کاملReservoir water temperature modeling by geostatistical analysis of ASTER images (Case Study: Dez Dam, Iran)
Satellite data have been used for temperature modeling both in urban areas and water. This paperstudies viability of ASTER satellite images that provide high spatial and spectral resolution to model watersurface temperature, as a fundamental water quality parameter. This study is focused on Dez dam reservoirresiding in Khuzestan province, south west of Iran. After the image corrections required...

متن کاملScheduling Downloads for Multi-Satellite, Multi-Ground Station Missions
In this paper we address the deterministic, multi-satellite, multi-ground station communication scheduling problem. As the number of small satellites in space increases, so does the demand for downloading their large quantities of acquired data. Given the capacity-constrained ground station network, efficient scheduling plays a major role in the overall performance of missions. The small-satell...
