Methods and standards for encryption of spacecraft telemetry and telecommand links
Abstract
Spacecraft telemetry and telecommand link transmission requirements were analyzed in order to define the best encryption technique. Implementation feasibility of the proposed telecommand authentication system was analyzed. The authentication system was simulated on a computer to verify the predicted system characteristics. A draft encryption guideline was produced.
