1 Interface Requirements

1.1 Requirements Terminology

The term “shall” designates a requirement that must be achieved and is synonymous with the term “threshold.”

The term “should” designates a desired level of performance the government would like the contractor to strive towards achieving and is synonymous with the term “goal.”

All other terms, including “will”, only designate statements of fact or intentions of the government and are not to be interpreted as contractor requirements.

An instrument may comprise more than one physical assembly, or unit. “Sensor unit” refers to the unit that contains the optics. “Instrument unit” means the sensor unit, electronics box (if applicable), or other units of the instrument.

3 Requirements

3.1 General Requirements

3.1.1 On-Orbit Concept

The satellite will operate in a geosynchronous orbit (Semi-major axis of approximately 42,164 Km) located at either 75° or 137° west longitude. Normal on-orbit operations entail periodic station keeping maneuvers that keep the satellite within a 0.2° inclination about the equator and within ±0.2° of the onstation longitude.

Instruments shall survive an anomaly resulting in a static instrument line-of-sight (LOS) such that the sun passes through the LOS at orbit rate.

Instruments, while operational, shall survive a spacecraft attitude anomaly resulting in the sun being at an arbitrary fixed location within the instrument field of regard (FOR) for an indefinite period of time.

The instrument will be in Survival Mode during launch.

Instruments shall survive a spacecraft attitude anomaly resulting in the sun sweeping through the fieldof-view (FOV) of the instrument radiator from “horizon to horizon” at a rate of 6O/minute, passing through radiator normal.

3.1.2 Coordinates

The orbit reference frame (ORF) shall be defined as follows:

The ORF is orthogonal and right-handed.

The ORF origin is at the spacecraft center of mass.

The ORF +z axis points toward the center of the Earth.

The ORF +y axis points along the negative orbit normal.

The ORF +x axis completes the triad.

The body reference frame (BRF) shall be defined as follows:

The BRF is orthogonal and right-handed.

The BRF is fixed to the body of the spacecraft.

The location of the BRF origin will be specified by the spacecraft contractor.

The BRF axes are nominally parallel to the ORF axes when spacecraft attitude is in its nominal Earth-pointing, upright yaw attitude with zero attitude error.

The roll, pitch, and yaw axes are defined to be parallel to the BRF x, y, and z axes, respectively.

418-XO-GXIGIRD-0025, RM Version, GeoXO General Interface Requirements Document (GIRD)

If there is a yaw-flip, the spacecraft will be flown upright (+Y BRF pointed in the +Y ORF direction) during northern hemisphere winter and inverted (+Y BRF pointed in the -Y ORF direction) during northern hemisphere summer. i.e., the +Y BRF axis is generally in the same hemisphere as the Sun.

If there is no yaw-flip, the spacecraft will be flown upright all year.

The reference coordinate system of each instrument unit shall be nominally parallel to the spacecraft BRF coordinate system, with the exception of solar-pointing instruments.

3.1.3 Yaw Flip

For an instrument with passive cryogenic detector cooling, the GeoXO spacecraft will be rotated 180O about the Z-axis (yaw) twice per year to keep the -Y axis side of the spacecraft shaded, within ±4 days of the Sun crossing the orbit plane.

Instruments shall meet all performance requirements whether or not the spacecraft performs a yaw flip, except for instruments with cryogenic detectors cooled by a passive radiator.

3.2 Interface Requirements

All instrument-to-spacecraft interfaces shall be single fault tolerant.

3.2.1 Mechanical

The instrument contractor will provide all kinematic mounts, plus vibration isolation and thermal isolation mounting hardware.

3.2.1.1 Nadir Pointed Instrument Alignment

3.2.1.1.1 Placement

The placement of the instrument alignment reference frame with respect to the spacecraft IRU reference frame shall be to within 0.25 degrees per axis, including variation over all launch and on-orbit environments.

3.2.1.1.2 Initial Alignment Knowledge

The prelaunch alignment knowledge of the instrument alignment reference frame with respect to the spacecraft IRU input axes shall be 300 microradians or better per axis.

3.2.1.1.3 Alignment Rate of Change

The rate of change of the alignment of the instrument mounting frame with respect to the spacecraft IRU input axes shall not exceed 100 microradians per hour per axis. This requirement includes on-orbit environments and spacecraft structural and thermal stability.

The attitude error of the instrument mounting frame relative to the desired ORF-referenced attitude shall not exceed 360 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis. Attitude error is defined as the difference between the desired attitude and the actual, or true, attitude of the instrument mounting frame.

The instrument mounting frame attitude shall be stable to within 500 microradians, peak-to-peak, per axis, over any 60 sec window.

3.2.1.2.2 Attitude Rate Error

For a given total spacecraft gyro signal phase delay, the instrument mounting frame attitude rate error relative to the desired ORF-referenced attitude shall not exceed ± the corresponding limit from the Total Spacecraft Gyro Signal Phase Delay and Rate Error Trade Space Figure provided below, per axis, when the rate is filtered by a fourth order Butterworth low pass filter with a -3dB frequency of 15 Hz.

Total Spacecraft Gyro Signal Phase Delay and Rate Error Trade Space Figure

3.2.1.2.3 Spacecraft Translation Acceleration Limits

The translational accelerations at the spacecraft side of each instrument sensor unit mount shall not exceed the limits specified in the Translational Acceleration Limits for Spacecraft to Instrument Table below. The limits apply to each orthogonal axis after the acceleration is bandpass-filtered using at least a fourth-order band-pass Butterworth filter with -3dB frequencies of f1 and f2. Note that the filter has fourth-order rolloff on both sides of the response. The accelerations can be present at any combination of the instrument sensor unit mounts and along any combination of the three orthogonal axes at each mount.

Solar Eclipse shall be considered as part of the environmental variation. The Solar Eclipse season occurs twice yearly, with each eclipse season lasting approximately 45 days. The maximum eclipse duration is 72 minutes.

3.3 Attitude and Orbit Data

All attitude, rate and orbit data shall be included in the spacecraft ancillary data packet.

3.3.1 Attitude Knowledge

The spacecraft shall provide a periodic attitude estimate to the instrument.

3.3.1.1 Accuracy

The attitude knowledge static error shall not exceed 1200 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis, precalibration.

This requirement together with the next two define separate static, diurnal and dynamic attitude knowledge components. These requirements bound the knowledge error, which is the difference between the estimated attitude and the true attitude.

The attitude knowledge diurnal error shall not exceed 45 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis. Diurnal error refers to that portion of the error that repeats from day-to-day.

The attitude knowledge dynamic error shall not exceed 30 microradians, 3-sigma, per axis. Dynamic error includes all non-static and non-diurnal errors.

3.3.1.2 Update Rate

The spacecraft shall update the attitude estimate at a rate no less than 1 Hz.

3.3.1.3 Latency

The attitude estimate latency shall not exceed 100 milliseconds.

3.3.2 Spacecraft Angular Rate

The spacecraft shall provide a periodic angular rate estimate to the instrument.

3.3.2.1 Accuracy

The integrated rate error of the spacecraft angular rate estimate shall not exceed 1 microradian, 3sigma, in the x and y axes, and 1.5 microradians, 3-sigma, in the z-axis over any 1 second window.

The integrated rate error of the spacecraft angular rate estimate shall not exceed 2 microradians, 3sigma, in the x and y axes, and 2.5 microradians, 3 sigma in the z-axis, over any 30 second window.

The integrated rate error of the spacecraft angular rate estimate shall not exceed 7 microradians, 3sigma, per axis, over any 300 second window.

The integrated rate error of the spacecraft angular rate estimate shall not exceed 20 microradians, 3sigma, per axis, over any 900 second window.
