Abstract

This domain was introduced in Section 7.1.5. This chapter starts with a brief introduction to the elements and components – ground and space – included in this domain. As it is strongly related to the previous chapter, the present chapter will use as examples three space missions already discussed in Chapter 11: Rosetta, Cluster, and Sentinel-3, as well as a new one, NOAA POESS. NOAA POESS produces very large amounts of data that need to be processed at high speed, and uses four different paths for data downlink and processing. This makes it an interesting mission to analyze.
