CCSDS ARCHITECTURAL OVERVIEW This Architectural Overview shows the Areas and Working Groups (topics) that are currently, as of May 2012, developing new standards in CCSDS.

The SIS area deals The primary objective of the CCSDS SOIS area with communication services and protocols that is to improve the spacecraft flight segment data are independent of specific link technology systems design and development process by (as a lower layer bound) and independent of defining generic services that will simplify the application-specific semantics (as an upper way flight software interacts with flight hardware bound). This covers essentially the network and permit interoperability and reusability for through application layers of the OSI reference the benefit of agencies as well as industrial model. The SIS area accommodates all ranges contractors. of delay, interactivity, and directionality, although not all protocols are appropriate for all environments. SPACE LINK SERVICES (SLS) The SLS area develops efficient space link MISSION OPERATIONS AND communications systems common to all INFORMATION MANAGEMENT participating agencies. A space link interconnects SERVICES (MOIMS) a spacecraft with its ground support system or with another spacecraft. New generations The objective of the MOIMS area is to address all of space missions require telecommand of the flight execution phase applications that are and telemetry capabilities beyond current required to operate the spacecraft and its ground technologies. These new needs are for higher system in response to mission objectives and their data rates, better link performances, and associated detailed information management higher performing ranging systems. SLS area standards and processes. The focus of this area concentrates on radio frequency (RF) and is primarily on the “mission operations” functions modulation, channel coding, and data link layer that occur on a timescale driven by the flight path -- for both long-haul (e.g., spacecraft to ground) of the space vehicle. The MOIMS area ensures and proximity links (e.g., orbiter to lander). Two that application standards exist that facilitate the additional SLS functions are data compression for smooth transition of space mission information end-to-end data transfer optimization and ranging between the “mission operations” systems and for accurate orbit determination. the “mission utilization” systems.
