An Ontology Driven Information Architecture for Interoperable Disparate Data Sources

The mission of the Planetary Data System is to facilitate achievement of NASA's planetary science goals by efficiently collecting, archiving, and making accessible digital data produced by or relevant to NASA's planetary missions, research programs, and data analysis programs. The vision is: (1) To gather and preserve the data obtained from exploration of the Solar System by the U.S. and other nations (2) To facilitate new and exciting discoveries by providing access to and ensuring usability of those data to the worldwide community (3) To inspire the public through availability and distribution of the body of knowledge reflected in the PDS data collection PDS is a federation of heterogeneous nodes including science and support nodes

Architectures Toward Reusable Science Data Systems

Science Data Systems (SDS) comprise an important class of data processing systems that support product generation from remote sensors and in-situ observations. These systems enable research into new science data products, replication of experiments and verification of results. NASA has been building systems for satellite data processing since the first Earth observing satellites launched and is continuing development of systems to support NASA science research and NOAA's Earth observing satellite operations. The basic data processing workflows and scenarios continue to be valid for remote sensor observations research as well as for the complex multi-instrument operational satellite data systems being built today.

A Spectrally Efficient Ka-Band GaN Power Amplifier with Scalable Power Combining Architecture for Lunar High Data Rate Direct-to-Earth Communications

The output power from a single gallium nitride (GaN) high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) based monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifier (PA) chip is limited to few watts. To achieve higher power, the output from several chips have to be combined. In this paper we present, the results of a study conducted to investigate a 2-way power combiner to combine the output power from two GaN MMIC based high power amplifier (HPA) chips The parameters investigated includes the power combiner characteristics, individual GaN MMIC based HPA output power, gain, and power added efficiency, and the overall performance of the combined amplifier.

The ASC Data Archive for the AXAF Ground Calibration

A data archive is near completion at the AXAF Science Center (ASC) to store and provide access to AXAF data. The archive is a distributed client/server system. It consists of a number of different servers which handle flat data files, relational data, replication across multiple sites, and the interface to the WWW. There is a 4GL client interface for each type of data server, C++ and Java APIs, and a number of standard clients to archive and retrieve data. The architecture is scalable and configurable in order to accommodate future data types and increasing data volumes. The first release of the system became available in August 1996 and has been successfully operated since then in support of the AXAF calibration at the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, AL. This paper will present the overall archive architecture and the design of client and server components. It will also review the ground calibration data contents, the plan for flight data, and the access to the data by ASC internal users and processing pipelines.

An evaluation plan of bus architectures and protocols using the NASA Ames intelligent redundant actuation system

Means for evaluating data bus architectures and protocols for highly integrated flight control system applications are needed. Described are the criteria and plans to do this by using the NASA/Ames Intelligent Redundant Actuation System (IRAS) experimental set-up. Candidate bus architectures differ from one another in terms of: topology, access control, message transfer schemes, message characteristics, initialization. data flow control, transmission rates, fault tolerance, and time synchronization. The evaluation criteria are developed relative to these features. A preliminary, analytical evaluation of four candidate busses (MIL-STD-1553B, DATAC, Ethernet, and HSIS) is described. A bus must be exercised in a real-time environment to evaluate its dynamic characteristics. A plan for real-time evaluation of these four busses using a combination of hardware and simulation techniques is presented.

Digital Signal Conditioning for Flight Test Instrumentation

This volume in the AGARD Flight Instrumentation Series provides flight test instrumentation engineers with an introduction to digital measurement processes on aircraft. Flight test instrumentation systems are rapidly evolving from analog-intensive to digital-intensive systems, including the use of onboard digital computers. Topics include measurements that are digital in origin, as well as sampling, encoding, transmitting, and storing of data. Particular emphasis is placed on modern avionic data bus architectures and what to be aware of when extracting data from them. Examples of data extraction techniques are given. Tradeoffs between digital logic families, trends in digital development, and design testing techniques are discussed. An introduction to digital filtering is also covered.
