Flexible Guidance Software System.
Abstract
The design of key elements of the Flexible Guidance Software System was continued to establish feasibility of the concepts and to finalize design requirements. The system concepts were originally established in an earlier study of quick-reaction guidance. The Flexible Guidance Software System is a ground-based data processing system employed in the preparation of software for spacecraft computers. The system is highly automatic and is designed to reduce the manual labor involved in the analysis, test and development, and validation phases of the software preparation process. Emphasis was placed on the development of a Mission Planner Program to generate reference trajectories and operational data for a broad class of missions and vehicles. (Author)
