Customer: Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES)

Programme: CERES

Supply Chain: CNES > CS Group SPACE

Context

CS Group responsabilities for SSC IVV, support in Technical and Operational Qualification and LEOP of CERES mission are as follows:

• • Piloting of the IVV by CS GROUP, TQ/OQ tests by CNES

The features are as follows:

• **AIV **: Development of LDP procedures and missionary, definition of strategy, automated plans and execution of tests (AIV tools for managing contexts, results, requirements) **QT/QO ** system tests: preparation and support for the execution of compatibility/qt/qo tests, development of operational procedures **Support for operations **: Resources integrated in CNES teams for launch, the recipe in flight and beginning of life (shifts, soil clips)

Project implementation

The project objectives are as follows:

• Assistance to engineering and support for the realization of ** Integration and System Qualification ** of the components of the ** Segments Control of the Ceres ** Satellites ** the ** Line of Isis products**
• First missionary and integration of the ISIS LDP
• Defense context: strong security constraints

The processes for carrying out the project are:

• Requirements management (STB, IF): Testlink and Excel
• Specific assembly process, integration, validation qualification of control soil segments
• Tests qualification system for control soil segments: compatibility, technical and operational qualification

Technical characteristics

The solution key points are as follows:

• Configuration and deployment of SSCs: nominal, rescue, SCP/SSV (experts) and 10 test lines
• 1st operational qualification channel TM/TC Isis: BDS configurations, sessions, SLE, COP, Catalogs, TM visualization, TC Histo
• 1st implementation of ISIS operational concepts: procedures, automation
• Experienced AIV team including experts
