Abstract

The control system of space launch site plays a key role in mission success. The application of intelligent control systems and unmanned systems can increase mission efficiency. However, these systems can also cause large uncontrollable security risks. Normally, in a launch site, experts must rush to the launch field for diagnosing and/or handling automatic control system faults. In the case of high-frequency multisite missions, this mode of operation is not sustainable. This paper proposes a remote and intelligent support architecture for the autonomous control of ground equipment. The architecture has three hierarchical levels: field, launch-site, and long-range. It integrates the control verification and fault diagnosis of field autonomous control at the launch site with remote fault diagnosis and prediction and remote maintenance. It enables the control system for the ground equipment in the launch site to operate without faults. This paper introduces the main schemes necessary to realize the key elements of the system and the architecture. In the preliminary practice, the launch mission is found to be supported effectively.
