Re: Lunar Orbiting Platform Gateway

Here are the slides from recent ARISS presentations at AMSAT Space Symposium, and a paper presented at IAC about ARISS' view of amateur radio on the Gateway project.

The IAC presentation can be downloaded from:

Here are the slides about amateur radio for Gateway:

Thank you to Frank Bauer for providing all of this content. 

What can we do to support, extend, and enhance the effort to get open source DSP framework content better represented in space through the Gateway project?

And you mentioned something about amateur radio portions, Michelle?

Hi -

I am involved in recommending the radio communications architecture for Gateway which is baselined to utilize CCSDS (see cases.org) protocols.

For long-haul RF links (Gateway to Earth) Unified Space Link Protocol (USLP).  

For short-haul RF (Gateway to lunar surface): Proximity-1 and AOS

For proximity wireless networks (around Gateway and on lunar surface) 802.11 n/ac baselined, 802.11ax and LTE are under strong consideration.

Please feel free to respond directly if additional information is needed and I’ll strive to assist.

Kevin

It was a cheap joke on my part (and not at all commentary on the gateway concept).  Disregard.

I'd be down to collaborate on something open source.  Could you point to publicly available documents that summarize the standards/specs?

I was hesitant to ask why, but I'm curious now. 

I know the Gateway is controversial. I understand there's a lot of doubt it will actually happen. The heavy emphasis on commercial activity is another aspect. 

However, I've been asked for help on a receiving station for the amateur radio portions that might be included. There's a lot of overlap between what I do and the type of communications proposed. 

Comment and critique would be very appreciated here.

Does that imply they're finished?
