AIRSAR Automated Web-based Data Processing and Distribution System

In this paper, we present an integrated, end-to-end synthetic aperture radar (SAR) processing system that accepts data processing requests, submits processing jobs, performs quality analysis, delivers and archives processed data. This fully automated SAR processing system utilizes database and internet/intranet web technologies to allow external users to browse and submit data processing requests and receive processed data. It is a cost-effective way to manage a robust SAR processing and archival system. The integration of these functions has reduced operator errors and increased processor throughput dramatically.

Data Distribution System (DDS) and Solar Dynamic Observatory Ground Station (SDOGS) Integration Manager

The DDS SDOGS Integration Manager (DSIM) provides translation between native control and status formats for systems within DDS and SDOGS, and the ASIST (Advanced Spacecraft Integration and System Test) control environment in the SDO MOC (Solar Dynamics Observatory Mission Operations Center). This system was created in response for a need to centralize remote monitor and control of SDO Ground Station equipments using ASIST control environment in SDO MOC, and to have configurable table definition for equipment. It provides translation of status and monitoring information from the native systems into ASIST-readable format to display on pages in the MOC. The manager is lightweight, user friendly, and efficient. It allows data trending, correlation, and storing. It allows using ASIST as common interface for remote monitor and control of heterogeneous equipments. It also provides failover capability to back up machines.

Distributed System of Mobile Passive Tensegrity Structures

A study on the application of spherical tensegrity structures to a passively mobile tumbleweed-like concept was developed and tested. Parameterized sizing tools were developed to understand environmental and geometrical sensitivities and maintain the ability to apply the concept to various environments. The sensitivity studies were then used to inform the design, and then a prototype model for an Earth environment was built to correlate the sizing tool outputs with experimental data. This prototype underwent testing in order to understand performance of the structure in more controlled (wind tunnel testing) environments and more realistic (field testing) environments. This paper will describe the design derivation and sensitivity studies performed along with the test results of the prototype structure.
