Design of a reliable computing system for the Petite Amateur Navy Satellite (PANSAT).
designofreliable00hise.pdf (5.500Mb)Abstract
This thesis proposes a processor design for the Petite Amateur Navy Satellite
(PANSAT). The missions of PANSAT are considered. It compares the design of three
previous satellites with similar missions and determines the processor functions required
to support PANSAT missions. Particular attention is given to the store and forward
message system. A reliable processor design that implements these functions is developed.
The reliability of the proposed design is examined. Minimum software requirements
for the resulting design are listed.
