Operational Requirements Document (PORD) Phase B

1 Scope

1.1 Identification

This Performance and Operational Requirements Document (PORD) sets forth the performance requirements for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Geostationary eXtended Orbits (GeoXO) Ocean Color (OCX) instrument. The OCX may incorporate additional capabilities described in Appendix 1.

1.2 Mission Review

The OCX is a multi-channel, UV through infrared, passive imaging radiometer used to measure environmental data as part of a 3-axis stabilized, geostationary weather satellite system. The OCX remotely collects imagery of the Earth’s coastal waters for harmful algal blooms, water turbidity, and general water quality, fisheries management, habitat quality/assessment/mapping, pollution tracking, biogeochemical processing in coastal regions, warnings and predictions.

The OCX objectives are as follows:

a) Provide new NOAA ocean color operational data that will be used by NOAA and other public and private agencies to produce forecasts of water quality pollution including turbidity and harmful algal blooms.

b) Provide ocean color operational data that will be used to expand knowledge of coastal waters and ocean processes in the exclusive economic zone (EEZ).

The ocean color instrument provides data to the Ground System via the spacecraft communication system. The Ground System takes the data, spacecraft telemetry data, orbit determination data and other required information and autonomously generates radiometrically calibrated and navigated data (Level 1b data) for the NOAA users.

The Ground System procured by the Government will implement algorithms developed by the OCX Contractor to satisfy performance requirements. The Ground System will calibrate and navigate the data to generate L1b data.

1.3 Document Overview

This document contains all performance requirements for the OCX instrument and Ground Support Equipment (GSE). This document, the General Interface Requirements Document (GIRD), and the OCX Unique Instrument Interface Document (UIID) define all instrument to spacecraft interfaces for the OCX instrument.

1.4 Terminology

The use of “shall” designates a requirement that must be met.

The use of “will” designates a statement of fact or intention of the Government.

The use of “may” designates that permission has been granted by the Government.

The term “TBD” means, “to be determined” and is used when no value is available with subsequent study needed to obtain it.

The term “TBR” means “to be refined/reviewed” for a value that is subject to review for appropriateness and is subject to revision. The Contractor is liable for compliance with the information marked “TBR” as if the “TBR” notation did not exist.

1.5 Definitions

Throughout this document, the following definitions apply (note that Appendix 1 has optional updates to some terms):

Accuracy: Refers to the error in a measurement, that is the difference between the measurement result and the object to be measured (the measured or true value). It includes both systematic and random errors. Systematic errors must be estimated from an analysis of the experimental conditions and techniques. Random errors can be determined, and reduced, through repeated measurements under identical conditions.

Albedo: Refers to the fraction of the solar spectrum taken from the default MODTRAN solar irradiance file (newkur.dat) that is reflected by the Earth at the top of the atmosphere assuming a Lambertian surface (see Ocean Color (OCX) Radiances Upwelling Document, document number 418-XO-RPT-0077, for values).

All requirements/all performance requirements/all operational requirements: Refers to any performance characteristic or requirement in the OCX PORD, OCX UIID, and the

GIRD.

Credible Failure: A failure condition that has a reasonable likelihood of occurrence over the mission life. With consideration of reliability analysis and engineering experience, the Government technical authority will determine credibility of failure. For the purposes of this document, failures of structure, pressure vessels, and pressurized lines and fittings are not considered credible failure modes if those elements comply with the applicable requirements of this document.

Derived Noise Equivalent Delta Radiance (NEDN): Refers to the NEDN required to meet the Noise Equivalent Delta Temperature (NEDT) specification or Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) specification.

EEZ East Region: Any spatial resolution element in the Atlantic along the US East or Gulf Coast including the Gulf of Mexico and within 400 km from the continental US shoreline, with inclusion of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean. This is a region of approximately 6110 km x 400 km in area without including Puerto Rico and 6300 km by 400 km including Puerto Rico EEZ.

EEZ West Region: Any spatial resolution element in the Pacific along the US West coast and within 400 km from the continental US shore plus any spatial resolution element in the Pacific along the Hawaii coast and within 400 km from the Hawaiian shore, plus approximately 2000 km of the observable southern Alaska coast from the GOES West slot (137 West) that falls within 400 km from the Alaskan shore. This is a region of approximately 3600 km by 400 km in area plus 2000 km by 400 km in area for Alaska totaling 5600 km by 400 km in area.

Great Lakes: Any spatial resolution element in the Great Lakes. This is a region of approximately 900 km by 1250 km in area.

For OCX, data are not resampled.

Level 1b data: Unpacked and reformatted Level 0 data with all supplemental information to be used in subsequent processing appended. Radiometric calibration and navigation are applied to produce parameters in physical units. Data generally presented as full space/time resolution. Note: For OCX, data are not resampled.

Level 2+ data: Retrieved environmental variables (e.g., sea surface temperature) and higher products.

Navigation: Refers to the determination of the location of each pixel relative to a fixed reference, namely for the OCX, the GRS80 geoid viewed from the idealized geostationary position, with latitude and longitude information appended in the L1b product.

Registration: Refers to maintaining the spatial relationship between pixels within frames, between frames, and between channels.

Launch: The period of time between lift off and the separation of the satellite from the launch vehicle.

Navigation Error: Refers to the angular error of locations in the fixed-grid angles.

Precision: Refers to the standard deviation of a statistically meaningful number of samples of a measurement.

SNR: Refers to the Signal-to-Noise Ratio specification.

Transfer Orbit: The sequence of events that transpires to establish the GeoXO satellite on-station after the GeoXO satellite has separated from the launch vehicle.

Unit: A functional subdivision of a subsystem and generally a self-contained combination of items performing a function necessary for the subsystem's operation.

Examples are electronics unit and sensor unit.

1.6 Requirement Applicability

The requirements in this OCX PORD pertain to the OCX ‘system’, which may include motors, optics, detectors, signal processing electronics and software, and ground processing. The OCX Contractor is not responsible for the whole Ground System, but certain specifications may require some level of ground processing after collection but before data distribution, i.e. decompression, re-sampling, and calibration.

All requirements apply over the entire life of the OCX. Requirements, such as Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) and Image Navigation and Registration (INR), apply after including Level 1b ground processing impacts, except as indicated.

Operational Requirements Document (PORD) Phase B

The OCX shall by command perform electronic in-flight calibration.

Rationale: Diagnostic mode electronic in-flight calibration will help in validation and in assessing anomalies.

The OCX shall by command send dwell data (increased samples per second of a particular telemetry measurand) while in Diagnostic Mode.

Rationale: Diagnostic mode dwell data will help in validation and in assessing anomalies.

3.1.1.4 Outgassing

The post-launch outgas period shall be no longer than 14 days.

Rationale: The OCX will sublimate and evaporate contaminants from hardware to prevent contamination from jeopardizing performance.

3.1.2 On-Orbit Operations

3.1.2.1 Operational Zones

3.1.2.1.1 Performance Zone

The OCX shall meet all performance requirements for all pixels whose solar zenith angle (SZA) is less than 70 degrees.

Rationale: SNR, on-orbit calibration, and accuracy are met in well-illuminated conditions during the day and may degrade in performance outside this region. Solar zenith angle is the angle measured off local zenith to the moving sun’s position.

3.1.2.2 Imaging the Sun

The OCX shall survive the presence of the sun within the field of regard without sustaining any permanent degradation in performance.

Rationale: The sun must not result in damage to the instrument.

3.1.2.3 Operations After Maneuvers

3.1.2.3.1 Yaw Flip

The OCX shall meet all radiometric, coverage and INR requirements within 30 minutes after the spacecraft interface has returned to being within specification following a yaw flip.

Rationale: If the spacecraft executes a yaw flip, the instrument recovery will occur in this duration after the interface is restored to nominal conditions.

3.1.2.3.2 Stationkeeping

With the exception of a yaw flip, the OCX shall meet all radiometric, coverage and INR requirements within 2 minutes after the spacecraft interface has returned to being within specification following spacecraft maneuvers.

Rationale: If the spacecraft executes a different maneuver than a yaw flip, the instrument recovery will occur in this short duration after the interface is restored to nominal conditions.

3.1.2.3.3 Post Storage Activation

The OCX shall meet all requirements within 4 days of turn on after post storage activation.

3.1.2.4 Detector Operating Temperatures

The OCX detector set-point temperature shall be selectable by command to ensure radiometric performance during degradation at end of life.

Rationale: This provide for set point temperature adjustments near the operating temperature range that may be needed due to gain changes or troubleshooting.

The OCX detector temperatures shall be included in telemetry to support radiometric performance assessment.

Rationale: OCX may be thermally sensitive due to its detectors and thermal telemetry will provide information for potential corrections and troubleshooting.

3.2 Normal Operational Mode Sensor Requirements

3.2.1 Coverage

3.2.1.1 Coverage Rate

Note that these coverage requirements define a capability and not a definitive operational scenario. Rather, NOAA anticipates operating OCX in an asynchronous manner that uses information from other instruments and models to identify potential regions for scanning/stepping by OCX. To perform its tasks, commanding of OCX for these targeted observations will be based on priorities and availability.

The OCX shall acquire concurrently within 3 hours:

a) Coverage Regions: Either EEZ East Region (EEZE) plus Great Lakes (GL), or EEZ West Region (EEZW). Note that EEZE+GL is larger than EEZW.

b) Any other observations required to meet radiometric and INR requirements

Rationale: When covering the driving EEZE plus Great Lakes, the coverage including all calibrations will take 3 hours or less to ensure a timely coverage rate for the instrument that may be used to cover smaller areas in proportionally smaller times.

Nominally coverage from OCX on the GeoXO Imager satellite (GeoI) at 75 W (GeoI- East) will cover EEZE plus Great Lakes and OCX on GeoI-West at 137 W will cover

EEZW.

Operational Requirements Document (PORD) Phase B

The OCX shall interrupt current operations by issued command and start the acquisition of a new frame, after a frame coordinate upload, within 30 seconds.

Rationale: The OCX must be commandable to cover regions of interest. Regions will be covered with the same instrument coverage rate, with smaller areas taking proportionally less time.

All corresponding EEZE+GL frames in consecutive revisits shall be spaced at an average time of no more than 3 hours with peak deviation of no more than +/- 30 seconds.

Rationale: The OCX revisit of the entire region should be repeatable if commanded with a regular cadence with limited temporal deviation to support operations.

3.2.1.2 Flexible and Efficient Imaging Pattern

The OCX sensor shall observe an area of commanded size anywhere within the field of regard when commanded.

Rationale: Permits flexible tasking of OCX to regions of interest.

The scan area and geographic location shall be selectable from one frame to the next.

Rationale: Permits flexible tasking of OCX to regions of interest.

The OCX shall be designed such that the Earth-scanning patterns are fully programmable on-orbit.

Rationale: Permits flexible tasking of OCX to regions of interest.

The OCX shall accept fixed grid coordinates for all imaging patterns.

Rationale: Permits mapping to fixed grid.

The OCX shall set the center location of each frame to Fixed Grid Frame coordinates specified by command.

Rationale: Permits centering on fixed grid point for ease of Fixed Grid mapping.

The OCX shall implement an adjustable and commandable scan optimization that accepts priorities from operations and avoids clouds in illuminated regions using an uploaded cloud mask for the cases of a) faster coverage, b) targeted regions of interest.

Rationale: Cloud cover can be variable and requires flexibility in commanding for amount and extent. Adjustable and commandable scan optimization including prioritization by operations will enable either faster acquisition of the coverage regions specified in OCXPORD104 or additional targeted regions of interest.

Operational Requirements Document (PORD) Phase B

The OCX Field of Regard (FOR) shall be a minimum of 16.3 degrees to permit observations within the earth's Full Disk.

Rationale: This covers extreme angles of the EEZ.

3.2.1.4 Simultaneity

Corresponding pixels in all spectral channels shall be calculated from detector samples that are collected within 20 seconds of each other.

Rationale: Spectrally simultaneous observations provide observations of the same features and avoid artifacts in resulting data.

All adjacent pixels shall be calculated from detector samples collected within 2 minutes of each other, or OCX shall provide overlap of 42 urad near adjacent observation edges.

Rationale: This minimum overlap of adjacent observing edges, 42 urad or 1.5 km at nadir, will provide some shear mitigation for higher-level product processing when the observation edges are not made within 2 min of each other.

3.2.1.5 Data Latency

The OCX shall contribute to the total data latency for the Level 1b product of no more than 5 minutes for calibrated, navigated radiances.

Data latency is measured from the time the instrument collects all samples for an earth scene (or frame) to the time the data is available for dissemination on the ground as Level 1b data. The OCX contribution to data latency includes delay of delivery of data to the spacecraft and delay due to ground algorithm processing (i.e., INR).

Rationale: Latency between the last observation of the input data to the Level 1b processing and the availability of the data for further processing should be as short as practical.

3.2.2 Channel Definitions, SNR, Dynamic Range

3.2.2.1 Baseline

The OCX shall collect hyperspectral data in the range 0.350 – 1.02 um.

Rationale: A large number of narrow adjacent spectral samples allows for flexibility for current and future algorithm development to distinguish algal species.

The OCX SNR shall be greater than or equal to the values listed in the SNR table below, when computed over the listed spectral widths, for the at-aperture radiance provided in the Ocean Color (OCX) Radiances Upwelling Document, document number

418-XO-RPT-0077.

Rationale: These SNR values are needed at the L1b output in order to detect water leaving radiance properties via higher level product generation. Note that FWHM is the full width half maximum of the spectral resolution element.

5% Nmax shall be less than 4% of the step function for an rms over the sampling-to-edge phasing and the channel-to-channel relative phasing. The values of X include all distances between +17 microradians and -17 microradians.

Rationale: Requirement limits signal contamination from bright scene regions into dark scene regions.

3.2.3.3 Ringing from a Sharp Edge

or both the North/South and East/West edges, the OCX shall not overshoot the top of an edge or undershoot the bottom of edge by more than 2% of the height of the edge where:

a) The height and the overshoot/undershoot are measured in radiance units.

b) The edge delineates a 10% albedo region from a 90% albedo.

c) The overshoot is averaged over all phases of the detector sample grid to edge position.

Rationale: Requirement limits ringing response or overshoot near a sharp edge.

3.2.4 Image Navigation and Registration

3.2.4.1 Star Sensing

If autonomous star sensing is required to meet navigation requirements, the OCX shall have an on-board star catalog provided by the OCX Contractor, which is loadable and modifiable from the ground and covers a span of two weeks.

Rationale: If employed, star sensing will require a star catalog and not rely on operators.

3.2.4.2 INR Performance Requirements

All INR requirements listed herein refer to location error of detector samples as expressed in fixed-grid angles; i.e., the requirements apply to the end-to-end system, taking all instrument, spacecraft, and ground processing effects into account. Unless otherwise specified, all INR requirements in this document are specified as North/South and East/West fixed-grid angles, in microradians, 3-sigma, and refer to all hours of operation as defined by the operational zones.

In the context of OCX INR, 3-sigma error is defined to be equal to the 99.73rd percentile of the absolute values of all INR error observations collected over each 24-hour period from local noon to local noon. When INR requirements are temporarily suspended, due to Sun/Earth geometry or maneuver outages (including recovery time), the raw errors during the requirements suspension period should be ignored.

3.2.4.2.1 Navigation

The OCX navigation error shall not exceed 6.3 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis.

Frame-to-frame registration error shall not exceed 6.3 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis.

Frame-to-frame registration error is the difference in navigation error for an earth location in two consecutive frames within the same channel.

3.2.4.2.3 Within Frame Registration

Within a frame in the same channel, any two pixels shall be separated by the known fixed distance to within an error of 6.3 microradians, 3-sigma, measured radially.

3.2.4.2.4 Channel-to-Channel Registration

Channel-to-channel registration error, or co-registration error, is the difference in line-of-sight fixed-grid angles between spectral channels for any given pixel in the same frame.

Rationale: Co-registration for L1b applies to true line-of-sight fixed grid angles rather than the knowledge of those angles.

Co-registration errors between any two spectral channels shall not exceed 1.7 microradians, on a 3-sigma, per axis basis.

Rationale: This uses the same Government methodology as the PRAD.

3.2.5 Radiometric Accuracy and Precision

3.2.5.1 Repeatability

3.2.5.1.1 Pixel-to-Pixel

For all channels, while viewing a stable, uniform calibration source over expected geostationary environmental conditions and calibration frequency, the OCX shall have a pixel-to-pixel repeatability less than the derived NEDN. Channels will be characterized as if viewing a 100% albedo calibration source.

Rationale: Pixel-to-pixel repeatability should be less than the required noise level to not interefere with scene data collection.

3.2.5.2 Coherent Noise

For all channels, while viewing a stable, uniform calibration source over expected geostationary environmental conditions and calibration frequency, the OCX shall have no spatial coherent noise spectral component exceedances. The spatial coherent noise is defined as the variation in the 2-D Fourier transform of the pixel output of a square region of 0.042 radian by 0.042 radian following all calibration, sampling and detrending. An exceedance is defined as any spatial frequency whose scaled Fourier coefficients are greater than 25 percent of the derived NEdN. The scaled Fourier coefficients are defined using the following equations to scale the amplitude to match the amplitude of a single harmonic.

Detrending allows the removal of scene trends by subtracting the filtered scene using a square box car filter that is 10% of the minimum scene dimension. Edge effects of detrending may be reduced by using a symmetric boundary condition.

Note: The width of bin is defined by the fixed grid spacing. Channels will be characterized as if viewing a 100% albedo calibration source.

Rationale: Coherent noise in a Level 1b product should be less than the one fourth of the noise level to avoid interference.

3.2.5.3 Calibration of Channels

The OCX shall have an on-board optical path calibration capability.

Rationale: An on-board calibration capability of high quality improves near real time calibration accuracy compared to that of vicarious calibration. Additionally, vicarious calibration will also be used.

The OCX shall have an on-board calibration capability for all channels that provides absolute accuracy with traceability to NIST of 2.0%, 1-sigma, or less in the earth albedo measurements for scenes from 3% albedo through 100% albedo.

Rationale: Traceability to NIST (as documented in the SOW) provides improved absolute accuracy for near real time calibration. Calibration of water leaving radiance necessitates calibration accuracy that remains linear down to low albedo levels. Tight absolute accuracy improves the quality of ocean color science as the ocean color signal is a small fraction of the total top of atmosphere scene.

The OCX shall have a calibration capability for all channels that provides drift in calibrated radiances of no more than 0.5% over the OCX lifetime.

Rationale: Instrument degradation over the lifetime, if not corrected in processing, may be misunderstood and changing geophysical parameters over time. Degradation of the instrument and correction method(s) need to be understood and reported to the Government for use in near real time through the instrument Contractor calibration algorithms (updating calibration coefficients)

The OCX shall have a calibration capability for all channels that provides RMS repeatability of 0.2% or less. This requirement is met when no fewer than N independent calibrations are performed as closely as possible together in time and the RMS variation in each calibration coefficient is less than the specified level. N is the number of calibrations required to state at the 90% confidence level that the requirement has been met.

Rationale: Short term RMS repeatability of this level ensures high quality relative accuracy calibration.

3.2.5.4 Spatial Uniformity of Data

The OCX shall have less than 0.3%, 1-sigma, change in response in the calibrated pixel data over the field of regard specified in OCXPORD114 while viewing a stable, uniform calibration source over expected geostationary environmental conditions and calibration frequency.

Rationale: This covers extreme angles of the EEZ.

Channels will be characterized as if viewing a 100% albedo calibration source.

Rationale: Calibrated data needs to spatial uniform so that variations in the data are not misinterpreted to be real signal variations.

3.2.5.5 Crosstalk

3.2.5.5.1 Channel-to-Channel

The OCX channel-to-channel (electrical, optical, spatial, spectral) crosstalk shall be less than the derived NEDN. Channel-to-channel crosstalk is defined as the change in any channel output when one channel's illumination is changed from 0.1 Nmax to a radiance of Nmax while all other channels remain illuminated at a radiance level less than 0.1 Nmax.

Rationale: Crosstalk between any spectral channels needs to be less than the noise level to minimize spectral artifacts in the data that may be misunderstood to be real features in the data.

3.2.5.5.2 Within Channel

Non-adjacent pixel to pixel within channel cross talk, not including diffraction, shall be less than the derived NEDN. Within channel crosstalk is defined as the change in any non-adjacent pixel when one pixel’s radiance is changed from 0.1 Nmax to a radiance of Nmax while all other pixels in the same band remain illuminated at a radiance level less than 0.1 Nmax.

Rationale: Crosstalk within a spectral channel needs to be less than the noise level to minimize artifacts in the data that may be misunderstood to be real features in the data.

Operational Requirements Document (PORD) Phase B

In all directions from the edge of a 500 by 500 microradian bright target at twice Nmax, all detector outputs in all channels shall recover to normal operation within 24 microradians.

Rationale: Specular solar glint regions are limited to within this spatial distance from the solar sub-point.

3.2.5.7 Quantization Step Size

The quantizing step size for all detector samples shall be less than half the derived

NEDN.

Rationale: Signal quantization by the analog to digital converter should not be the driver in the noise budget in order to avoid having discrete jumps in signal level that can lead to digital artifacts (blocky) data.

3.2.5.8 Polarization

3.2.5.8.1 Polarization Control

Channels shall have less than 3% polarization sensitivity to the incoming light over the FOR specified in OCXPORD114.

Rationale: Polarization sensitivity should be small to limit signal variations with angle.

A polarization sensitivity of less than 3% is important for aerosol characterization for atmospheric correction, particularly 600 nm to 890 nm. Note polarization may vary with wavelength.

3.2.6 System Linearity

The OCX shall have linear radiometric response, before calibration, such that all points within the dynamic range vary from a linear best fit by no more than 1% of Nmax.

Rationale: Detectors may not be perfectly linear, but small deviations can be well corrected.

3.2.7 Data Compression

The OCX may perform data compression on all data.

Rationale: Data rates may be excessive for downlink without compression.

The OCX may perform lossy data compression.

Rationale: Constraint on application is not to degrade data beyond performance levels

3.2.7.1 Lossless Data Compression

If performed, lossless data compression shall be in accordance with Applicable Document 1 and Applicable Document 2.

Rationale: Lossless data compression when used will follow these references.

If performed, lossy compression shall not prevent the OCX from meeting requirements, most notably MTF, SNR, and coherent noise.

Rationale: Calibration data needs to be a high quality so nominally it should not be compressed as it may impact performance. Reference documents provide additional information on data compression.

All calibration data shall be lossless compressed or uncompressed.

Rationale: Calibration data needs to be a high quality so nominally it should not be compressed as it may impact performance.

3.3 Visualization Algorithm

The OCX Visualization Algorithm (VA) shall provide for visualization of radiances at each spectral channel.

The VA may utilize spatial and spectral resampling as needed.

The VA shall create spatially uniform output on the fixed grid of less than or equal to

8.4 µrad by less than or equal to 8.4 µrad that also complies with OCXPORD155 (frame-to-frame navigation) and OCXPORD157 (within-frame registration).

The VA shall create spectrally uniform output images of all spectral channels over full-width-half-maximum spectral widths.

For the VA algorithm output, the performance against OCXPORD133 (within-channel spectral response uniformity) shall be less than 6x the derived noise for all channels less than or equal to 0.890 µm.

Rationale: The VA enhances L1b data to produce images that are spatially and spectrally uniform.
