About this file

This interface requirements document outlines the technical specifications for data collection services between the proposed GeoXO spacecraft and ground systems. Key details include:

  • The GeoXO program will provide two-way communication links for terrestrial and oceanographic data collection platforms through two geostationary satellites located at 75° W and 137° W longitude using Data Collection Platform Report and Data Collection Platform Command transponders.

  • Interface requirements are defined for radio frequency performance, modulation, coding, data rates, coverage areas, gain control modes, and other parameters for both the uplink and downlink services. The document specifies center frequencies, power levels, antenna characteristics, modulation schemes, and end-to-end bit error rate thresholds.

1 Introduction

1.1 General GeoXO Description

1.1.1 Mission Objectives

Primary Mission Objectives:

a) To maintain GOES mission continuity and quality in environmental observations in the 2030-2050 timeframe

b) To provide enhanced environmental data products

c) To improve services and data being provided to Users

d) To be responsive to technology infusion to meet evolving User needs

1.1.2 Mission Description

The mission of the GeoXO System will be to acquire and disseminate environmental data from a near-equatorial Earth orbit at geosynchronous altitude (i.e., a geostationary orbit). This includes the Earth's surface and atmosphere. The major functions of the GeoXO System are to support the Imager (GXI), Lightning Mapper (LMX), Infrared Sounder (GXS), Atmospheric Composition (ACX), Ocean Color (OCX). Another function of the GeoXO System is to support terrestrial and oceanographic Data Collection Platforms (DCPs).

The GeoXO satellite will be launched from Cape Canaveral, FL. The government will be responsible for all ground networks, and communications required for performing the launch and orbit raising activities. All launch and orbit raising activities will be performed from the NOAA Satellite Operations Facility (NSOF) in Suitland, MD. Once geostationary orbit is achieved, all activities will be performed using the Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station (WCDAS) at Wallops, Virginia as the primary ground station, and a Consolidated Backup (CBU) facility at Fairmont, West Virginia. (CCR-X00161)

The GeoXO operational constellation will provide coverage from three locations, one at approximately 75° west longitude and the second at 105° west and the third at approximately 137° west longitude. The DCS services that includes both the DCPR and DCPC links service will only be supported on the east and west satellites. One or two satellites may be maintained as on orbit spares positioned at approximately 92° west or 94° west longitude. Post launch test and checkout activities will nominally be conducted at 88º west longitude. The satellites may be operated anywhere between 5° west and 148° west. During the transition to the GeoXO satellite series, the operational constellation may contain GOES-R satellites and incumbent satellites that have not yet been de-orbited. (CCR-X00161)

The satellites will be commanded throughout their mission lifetime from the NOAA Satellite Operational Control Center (SOCC) located at NSOF with the ground station radio frequency (RF) interface located at the WCDAS or CBU. The satellite health and safety telemetry streams will be received by the WCDAS/CBU and ground relayed to the SOCC for processing and monitoring. The raw sensor data will be received by the WCDAS/CBU, processed, reformatted, and distributed via NESDIS common cloud framework (NCCF). The WCDAS/CBU also receives all data collection platform reports automatically through the Data Collection Platform Reports (DCPR) transponder.

1.4 Requirements Terminology

The following requirements terminology is used throughout this document:

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 vendor is liable for compliance with the information marked “TBR” as if the “TBR” notation did not exist.

Requirements Document (IRD)

2 DCS Service and Interface Description

The GeoXO support to the Data Collection System (DCS) is provided by GeoXO satellites located at approximately 75º west and approximately 137º west longitude. This system provides two-way communication links between a large number of DCPs, through the GeoXO satellites to WCDAS, CBU and other ground stations, provided they are within the GeoXO coverage footprint. These DCPs are typically small remote monitoring stations used for the collection and reporting of near real-time environmental data and may be anywhere in the coverage region. DCPs may be located on aircraft, ships, balloons, and fixed sites and collect a wide variety of data (e.g., seismic, water level, wave state, snow and ice cover, etc.). The satellite access methods include either random, or scheduled access. (CCR-X00161)

Messages from the DCP to the WCDAS, CBU, and other ground stations, containing the reported data, are called Data Collection Platform Report (DCPR) messages and use 8- PSK modulation.

The DCPC transponders relay command messages from the ground stations to the DCPs and uses QPSK/CDMA modulation. (CCR-X00161)

The DCPR transponders will have the characteristics of a “bent-pipe architecture,” i.e., the downlink will have the same modulation and formatting as the uplink, regardless of the modulation used. The DCPR uplink is UHF and the downlink is L-Band. The DCPR transmissions are timed and randomly scheduled channelized frequency division multiple access (FDMA) with a total bandwidth of 400 kHz available. The DCPR channel center frequencies are given in applicable document [1].

The DCPC transponders will have the characteristics of a "bent-pipe architecture" i.e., the downlink will have the same modulation and formatting as the uplink, regardless of the modulation used on the uplink. The DCPC uplink is S-Band and downlink is UHF band. The signal bandwidth of the DCPC transponder is 100 kHz and covers both East and West frequency plans. (CCR-X00161)

The first 300 kHz is for domestic service. The 300 kHz is channelized and can be divided into 400, 300 bit/s (data) services with a channel bandwidth of 750 Hz, and into channels for 1200 bit/s (data) service with a channel bandwidth of 2250 Hz.

The first 50 kHz bandwidth is allocated for DCPC link operation at GeoI-East orbital slot while the second half of 50 kHz bandwidth is allocated for the GeoI-West frequency band. (CCR-X00161)

The upper 100 kHz consists of 132 channels with a 750 Hz bandwidth that are assigned to the International Data Collection System (IDCS) service.

Section 3 defines the overall link performance required for both the DCPR and DCPC links. (CCR-X00161)

Section 4 defines the interface and performance requirements for the DCPR interface.

(CCR-X00161)

Section 5 defines the interface and performance requirements for the DCPC links. (CCR- X00161)
