Each CCD is a square 4 megapixel device, with 2048 pixels on each side. Photons impinging on the CCD first pass through an image intensifier. The aperture on the intensifier does not quite cover the entire CCD, instead covering only an “Active Region” that is 1388 x 1516 pixels in size. The CIPS instrument will be capable of telemetering to the spacecraft bus the data from the entire CCD or any...

Minimal cost networks are presented when SONET UPSR and BLSR networks are deployed over a WDM fiber ring. The primary cost is the number of SONET ADMs, and a secondary cost is the number of wavelengths. The networks have been designed assuming a nonstatistical traffic model, and guarantees no blocking of traffic. Three network architectures are given that have low ADM costs. It is shown that ne...
