CubeSat developers are usually encouraged to test their satellite software on actual hardware as early as possible. Development boards, engineering models, and hardware-in-the-loop setups are a very common occurrence across engineering labs. However, these devices are often limited by the constraints of physicality: Small numbers, complex logistics and high costs can make testing inefficient,...
RACCOON OS is an open source operating system based for secure space applications based on Linux, which is being developed at the Technical University of Berlin with support from the German Aerospace Agency (DLR) and partners like Quantum Galactics GmbH and the Helmholtz Center for Information Security (CISPA).
The goal of this project is to create a free, easy to use and secure platform...
In the context of satellite's flight-software (FSW), the so-called the Parameter System or Service (PS) is a software (SW) components, very common in FSWs, its reefers to a software service that provides capabilities for managing on-board parameters, including reading current values, setting new values and redefining parameter locations and properties. In concrete, the PS consist of a...
