Spacelab Payload Data Path from User Input On-Board to User Output (laboratory)
Abstract
Spacelab end-to-end data flow is briefly surveyed and attention is given to the major elements of the data paths, including the Spacelab Control and Data Management System, the Orbiter avionics, the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System, and the Ground Payload Operations Facility. The operational concept of the end-to-end data flow is discussed, and appropriate block diagrams are presented.
