About this file
This document is a draft specification for a Magnetometer instrument to be provided under Solicitation Number 80GSFC23R0037 for the Space Weather Next L1 Series mission. The specification outlines extensive functional, performance, and environmental requirements for the Magnetometer and associated ground support equipment. Key requirements include the Magnetometer measuring the magnetic field to 0.5 nT accuracy up to 100 nT and 0.5% accuracy above 100 nT, sampling at 10 Hz and sending data at 7.5 kbps, operating from -25C to +40C, and surviving shocks, vibrations, and total ionizing radiation levels specified in the document. The contractor must also meet interface, mass, power, and data delivery requirements and undergo extensive verification testing as defined in the specification.

3 CONTRACT DESCRIPTION
3.1 Magnetometer Description
The Magnetometer instrument (Mag) suite consists of two magnetometer sensor units (each containing a three-axis magnetic field sensor), up to two electronic unit(s) and the associated interconnecting cables. It is expected that the magnetometer sensors will be mounted on a deployable boom provided by the L1 Series spacecraft contractor. The exact location, mounting configuration and distances between the sensors and the electronics will be negotiated between the magnetometer contractor and the spacecraft contractor in order to develop the required interface control documents for the magnetometer.
The term “Magnetometer Instrument” or suite includes the magnetometer sensors, electronics, cabling between sensors and electronics, up to the spacecraft provided interface. The “Magnetometer Electronics” includes the electronic components and may consist of a single box for both sensor units or two separate boxes, one for each sensor unit. Each “Magnetometer Sensor” includes a tri-axial sensor. The “Magnetometer Harness” includes the Magnetometer Instrument supplier provided harness and cabling necessary to connect each electronics/sensor pair.
The Magnetometer contract includes the delivery of two (2) flight magnetometer suites (where a single magnetometer suite is comprised of (2) flight sensors, (1) or (2) flight electronics unit and the flight harness(es) between the instrument boxes), one (1) Engineering Development Unit (EDU) magnetometer suite, and enough spares and built-up sub-assemblies for two additional FM sensors, an electronics unit and harnesses.
3.2 Ground Support Equipment Description
The Mag contract includes the delivery of (2) sets of the Electrical System Test Equipment (ESTE), (4) Magnetometer Emulators (MAGEs), and (1) One Ground Processing Development System (GPDS). Additionally, Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE) such as lifting fixtures/handles, shipping containers, drill templates, test fixtures, non-flight protective covers, etc. are included in the delivery. Electrical Ground Support Equipment includes, but is not limited to, test cables and break-out boxes.
The Magnetometer suite delivery includes ground support equipment required to power and operate the magnetometers at the vendor’s and spacecraft contractor’s facilities. The delivery also includes a standalone emulator that will interface to a spacecraft simulator for the purposes of interface testing, operations product development, and training.
Ground Support Equipment is necessary to operate the instrument during spacecraft testing.
Supplying this equipment is considered part of the delivery for the instrument. More information is provided in the Contract Deliverables Requirements List (CDRL).

4 FUNCTIONAL/PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
This section defines the functional and performance requirements for the L1 Series Magnetometer.
The requirements in this Specification pertain to the Magnetometer ‘system’, which may include all instrument hardware, software, and ground processing algorithms. The Magnetometer contractor is not responsible for the operational ground system, but certain specifications may require ground processing after collection but before data product generation and distribution, which the contractor is responsible for defining and developing.
4.1 Magnetometer Performance Requirements
4.1.1 Operational Measurement Range
MAGSPEC23: The magnetometer shall provide in situ heliospheric magnetic field measurements with a range in field magnitude of ±250 nT.
4.1.2 Measurement Accuracy
MAGSPEC25: The Mag shall measure the magnetic field to an accuracy of ≤ ±0.5 nT when measuring a magnetic field with magnitude ≤ 100 nT.
MAGSPEC26: The Mag shall measure the magnitude of magnetic field to an accuracy of ≤ ± 0.5% when measuring a magnetic field with magnitude >100 nT and ≤250nT.
MAGSPEC1010: The heliospheric magnetic field’s direction shall be provided with an accuracy of +/-1.5 degree accuracy over the required measurement range.
This accuracy requirement must be met with all Mag error sources included for the duration of the mission. One calibration maneuver per month (s/c roll about the sun line) can be assumed.
It is expected that a calibration period for the Mag will occur following launch (during the cruise phase) where inflight calibration will be performed.
MAGSPEC962: The Mag shall measure each Cartesian component of the magnitude of magnetic field to an accuracy of ± 1000 nT when measuring a magnetic field with magnitude >250nT.
4.1.3 Orientation Accuracy
MAGSPEC30: The relative orientation of the Mag axes to each other shall be known and stable to better than +/- 0.1 degrees.
MAGSPEC910: The relative orientation of the Mag measurement coordinate system to the instrument coordinate system shall be known to better than +/- 0.1 degrees.
Check https://ipdtdms.gsfc.nasa.gov/frontmenu_dsp.cfm to verify that this is the correct version prior to use.
4.1.4 Ground Test Measurement Range
MAGSPEC32: The Mag shall have for ground based testing an ambient measurement range of at least ±20000 nT in each of the three orthogonal axes.
4.1.5 Refresh Rate and Latency
The L1 Series mission will make Solar Wind data (including data from the Mag) available to SWPC forecasters within 3 minutes of the completion of each data acquisition.
MAGSPEC35: The mag instrument shall sample and send to the spacecraft ten magnetic field vector per second.
MAGSPEC36: The Mag ground processing algorithm (ref Sec 4.0) shall produce (output) an ambient magnetic field vector measurement with a refresh rate of ≤ 6 seconds derived from the 10 Hz magnetic field measurements.
MAGSPEC37: The Mag instrument measurements shall be timed-tagged to an accuracy ≤ 100 msec relative to the 1 PPS spacecraft reference signal.
MAGSPEC38: The processing of a completed on-orbit data collection by the Mag and the transmission to the spacecraft shall contribute ≤ 2 seconds to the overall latency of the solar wind data product.
MAGSPEC39: The Mag ground processing algorithm contribution to data latency of the Mag ground processing algorithm calibrated output shall be ≤ 116 seconds.
