Overview
Project Title	Spacecraft Onboard Interface Services - Reliable wireless intra-communication for spacecraft and launcher - PHY
Approval	Approved
Document Number
Charter	4.03 Onboard Wireless Working Group
Document Type	Orange
Description of Document	The experimental report provides an overview about the current activities from JAXA and DLR in order to introduce an intra-satellite and intra-launcher communication architecture for wireless networks using impulse radio ultra wideband. The specification covers the following topics: 1. Ultra wideband specification to be followed by operating systems 2. Interoperability parameters to provide interoperability testing 3. Test scenarios for interoperability testing and evaluation of the proposed technology in a representative environment. The specification will allow using COTS hardware from certified vendors according to the relevant IEEE standards. Moreover, no restriction on key parameters still provides the required flexibility and will support the ongoing research.
Applicable Patents	There are no patent issues for this technology that are known by the CCSDS community
Patent Comments
Survey of Similar Standards Documents or Projects Undertaken in Other Bodies and elsewhere in CCSDS	DLR and JAXA have reviewed current research literature and similar standards in SBOs and confirm that there currently exists no similar specification.
