Architecture Evolution Plan (AEP) M-Code Monitoring

Abstract

The M-Code Early Use (MCEU) program initiative will cover the development costs associated with updating the legacy control segment software, AEP, with additional capabilities needed to provide M-Code operations. MCEU will provide the Combined Space Operations Center (CSpOC) with command and control (C2), processing, and integrity monitoring for the M-Code signal. The development will also include the integration of modernized Monitor Station Technology Improvement Capability (MSTIC) receivers, which are being procured separately using Operations and Maintenance (O&M) funding as a Form-Fit- Functional replacement for the legacy Monitor Station Receiver Element (MSRE) Y-Code receivers. MCEU will add a software upgrade to MSTIC receivers to allow it to process M-Code signals. Prime contract was awarded to start software development and test activities; includes insertion of Legacy Hot Start, Demilitarized Zone, and Receiver Protection Profile requirements into the MCEU baseline.
