Simulation and applications as part of the ARGOS project
Abstract
As part of the ARGOS development project, different numerical simulations were performed. The computer programs are presented as block diagrams. These programs cover: simulation of ocean buoys, collecting and transmitting data to a TDR satellite; simulation of the onboard command and test system; and simulation of the onboard data processing equipment. The system and data link tests are described. A comprehensive data processing system test (PROBATION experiment) is also reviewed. Results show the high efficiency and readiness of the ARGOS data collecting and localization system.
