GROUND SYSTEM OVERVIEW
431-ICD-000049
Revision - Dv 3.0
DRAFT
The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) is the first robotic mission of the Robotic Lunar
Exploration Program (RLEP). The primary objective of the LRO mission is to conduct investigations that support future human exploration of the Moon. The launch readiness date for
LRO is October 2008.
LRO specific objectives are:
Characterize the lunar radiation environment, biological impacts, and potential mitigation
Determine a high resolution global, geodetic grid of the Moon in three dimensions
Assess in detail the resources and environments of the Moon’s polar cap regions
Perform high spatial resolution measurement of the Moon’s surface
The LRO instrument complement includes six instruments. Together, all six instruments allow
LRO to meet the mission objectives. The following text provides an overview description of the six instruments:
Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA): LOLA will determine the global topography of the lunar surface at high resolution, measuring landing site slopes and search for polar ice in shadow regions.
Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC): LROC will acquire targeted images of the lunar surface capable of resolving small-scale features that could be landing site hazards. LROC will also produce wide-angle images at multiple wavelengths of the lunar poles to document the changing illumination conditions and potential resources.
Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND): LEND will map the flux of neutrons from the lunar surface to search for evidence of water ice and provide measurements of space radiation environment which can be useful for future human exploration.
Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment (DLRE ): DLRE will map the temperature of the entire lunar surface at 300-meter horizontal scales to identify cold-traps and potential ice deposits.
Lyman-Alpha Mapping Project (LAMP): LAMP will observe the entire lunar surface in the far ultraviolet (UV). LAMP will search for surface ice and frost in the Polar
Regions and provide images of permanently shadowed regions illuminated only by starlight.
Cosmic Ray Telescope for Effects of Radiation (CRaTER): CRaTER will investigate the effect of galactic cosmic rays on tissue-equivalent plastics as a constraint on models of biological response to background space radiation.

LRO will also fly a technology demonstration instrument called the Mini-Radio Frequency (RF).
The purpose of the Mini-RF is to demonstrate new radar technology for future use in planetary resource mapping. The mini-RF payload will operate on a non-interference basis throughout the mission.
The LRO spacecraft bus will be built at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). Integration of the measurement instruments to the orbiter system as well orbiter environmental testing will be performed at GSFC.
LRO is scheduled to launch in October 2008. The orbiter will be launched aboard an evolved expendable launch vehicle (EELV) from the Eastern Range at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC).
The Launch Vehicle (LV) will inject LRO into a cis-lunar transfer orbit. LRO will be required to perform a series of Lunar Orbit Insertion (LOI) maneuvers to enter into the orbiter commissioning orbit of 30x216 kilometers (km). After orbiter commissioning is complete, LRO will be maneuvered into a 50 km circular orbit.
Once LRO is in the final mission orbit, the six instruments will start to collect measurement data for the mission. Measurement data along with housekeeping (HK) data will be dumped to the
LRO Ground System (GS). Once the data is on the ground, the GS is responsible for distribution of the data to the individual science operations centers (SOCs). The SOCs will receive and process the data to create level 1 data products. The LRO GS and SOCs also have the responsibility to transfer the processed data products to the Planetary Data System (PDS) for long term archival.
The details of the mission with the identification of the mission phases and the activities with each phase are provided in the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Mission Design Handbook (431-
HDBK-000486)

DRAFT
Communications network which provides voice and data connectivity between each of these elements
Because of the high data volume that LRO will produce and the use of Ka-Band frequency, LRO elected to use a dedicated S/Ka ground station for primary measurement data downlink. The measurement data is collected at the ground station and rate buffered to the MOC post-pass for data processing/accountability. The MOC at GSFC will distribute the measurement files along with other mission products that are needed for processing to each of the instrument SOCs. The
MOC is the focal point for all orbiter operations including health and safety monitoring. All commands to the orbiter are generated at the MOC. The SOCs support instrument operations including instrument command sequence inputs, measurement data processing, transferring measurement products to the PDS, and instrument housekeeping and performance trending.

DRAFT
Each LRO Ground System element, as listed in Figure 2-1, is briefly described in the following subsections.
2.1.1
The LRO Space Communications Network
The LRO Space Communications Network (SCN) consists of a dedicated ground station at
White Sands Complex, which is identified as White Sands One (WS1) and commercial S-Band ground stations; it uses the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)/DSN ground stations for backup/emergency support. The SCN supports the laser ranging site, which is located in
Greenbelt, Maryland. The laser ranging site is used to provide definitive, improved orbit knowledge for LRO and an improved lunar gravity model.
The WS1 ground station is capable of receiving 100 megabits per second (Mbps) downlink on
Ka-Band frequency of measurement data files produced by the instruments and supporting realtime commands and telemetry on S-Band frequency. Due to susceptibility to Ka from weather,
White Sands provides the optimal location due to its minimal precipitation levels. Because LRO requires near continuous tracking data for orbit determination, additional S-Band sites are needed. The S-Band only sites will provide real-time telemetry and commands capabilities along with tracking data. The S-Band stations could be used to dump low rate measurement files in a contingency mode. LRO plans to use the Deep Space Network for emergency/backup support.
The emergency/backup support will utilize only the S-Band frequency.
2.1.2
LRO Mission Operations Center
The MOC will be located at GSFC. It is the main telemetry and command interface to the orbiter. The MOC will process housekeeping data to monitor health and safety of the orbiter.
The MOC will also distribute measurement data to the individual SOCs along with other required mission products. The MOC provides temporary measurement data storage until verification is received from the SOC on file delivery. The MOC will receive any required instrument command sequences from the SOCs and process them before uplink. The MOC will also distribute real-time telemetry to the SOCs.
The LRO MOC provides the following types of control functions as listed below; these functional components will be further described and identified in later sections.
Telemetry& Command System (includes functionality to support I&T GSE)
Mission Planning System

The Science Operations Centers
431-ICD-000049
Revision - Dv 3.0
DRAFT
The six SOCs and the Mini-RF technology demonstration operations center provide the hardware and software to support the following functions:
Instrument health and safety monitoring
Instrument command sequence generation/request
Support orbiter calibration planning/coordination
Measurement data processing (level 0 and high)
Measurement data product archiving and transfer to the PDS
Maintain instrument flight software/tables
The SOCs themselves are not controlled and developed by the LRO ground system. The ground system responsibility ends with the interfaces to/from each of the SOCs
2.1.4
Flight Dynamics Facility
Flight Dynamics performs orbit determination, attitude processing and maneuver/ trajectory planning. For orbit determination, FD will receive the tracking data from the ground network and generate mission products. FD will also provide attitude verification and planning support for slews. Besides pre-mission trajectory and orbit planning, FD will also monitor and plan for trajectory maneuvers during the cruise, Lunar Orbit Insertion burns, and station-keeping maneuvers. The maneuver plans will be supplied to the MOC for execution.
2.1.5
Ground System Communications
The ground system communication network provides voice and data connectivity between each of the ground system elements. It will provide the necessary communication lines between the ground networks, MOC and SOCs.
Figure 2–2 depicts the communication architecture among the various LRO elements. It includes the space communications networks, the Kennedy Space Center (KSC), the GSFC MOC, and the seven science centers, which are located at various sites within the continental US. The communication links consist of dedicated communications lines, circuits, and routers.
Figure 2-2 LRO Communications Architecture
Communication among the I&T GSE, GS elements, the various science centers, and dedicated ground station at the White Sands Complex (WSC), the JPL/DSN backup/emergency ground stations, and the commercial S-Band network is accomplished through the Nascom Division and the NASA Integrated Services Network (NISN). NISN maintains both a secure or “closed”
Internet Protocol (IP) Operational Network (IONet), an unsecured or “open” IONet, and a hybrid
Restricted IONet (RIONet).

The LRO MOC GS elements, including the ITOS, the Data Processing System (DPS), the Data
Management System (DMS), the MOC ADS, and the Mission Planning System (MPS), are on the restricted IONet; the FDF component, located at GSFC in Building 28, resides on the closed
IONet. The Trending and Analysis System (TAS), and the Monitoring and Anomaly System reside on the open IONet.
NISN supplies the IP access connection from the closed, restricted, and open IONets and to the
CNE WAN; this connection is transparent to the user.
Real-time data access from the restricted IONet to the open IONet is through a socket connection using a secure applications gateway. Non real-time data access will be accomplished using FTP.
The MOC elements or operations personnel will nominally use the “FTP-push” mechanism to transfer files to other GS elements and to other external SOC facilities. The elements on the open side will initiate the FTP-push of the data files and products that they create. In case of error conditions, the elements on the open side will allow the LRO operations personnel to access the data using the FTP “pull” protocol. The elements on the open side will provide an email notification of a product’s availability whenever possible.
2.2
LRO OPERATIONAL GROUND SYSTEM
The LRO orbiter and spacecraft monitoring and control functions of the GS are performed within the LRO MOC by the Flight Operations Team (FOT). The ITOS GS element typically performs its functions in real time during an LRO spacecraft ground contact and is located within the realtime portion of the MOC. The LRO GS architecture is depicted in Figure 2–4.
LRO mission planning, command load generation, trend analysis, and attitude determination functions of the GS also are performed within the LRO MOC by the LRO FOT. These elements perform their functions using data from prior spacecraft passes and other sources. The products of these elements may be used during a LRO spacecraft ground contact and are located within the offline portion of the MOC.
This set of GS elements that support both real-time and offline functionality are defined and identified in the following table:

ITOS-Supported Real-time Telemetry and Commanding
431-ICD-000049
Revision - Dv 3.0
DRAFT
Section Reference
The real-time telemetry and command portion of ITOS receives virtual channel (VC) telemetry identified as VC0 and VC1. ITOS processes the engineering data and displays it to the FOT for monitoring the health and safety of the LRO spacecraft. ITOS processes the VC0 data and generates attitude data files for use by the MOC-ADS. ITOS archives engineering data files for later trending analysis by ITPS. ITOS performs the following real-time functions in support of the spacecraft health and safety:
Receive command files from FlexPlan
Performs real-time commanding using the received files from the FlexPlan
Transmits real-time data packets to IGSE during L&EO
Transmits real-time packet data to the various science centers
Performs real-time commanding
Generates log files for spacecraft health and safety monitoring by Attention
Subsets the data packets into usable files for ingest by the ITPS
Provides attitude data packets to the MOC-ADS component or use in the onboard computer
(OBC) attitude verification determination and to generate new gyro calibration tables
2.2.2
Data Processing System
ITOS provides the functionality of the Data Processing System (DPS); this is the primary interface to the station front end units for receiving and processing files transmitted using the
CCSDS File Delivery Protocol (CFDP). The DPS is responsible for ensuring a reliable transfer of data and that the data received on the ground is in the same format in which it was stored on the spacecraft. There will be two active units, one at the station for high data rate capture and one at the MOC for low data rate capture and uplink of table and memory files. The station and
MOC DPS are both setup and controlled by the ITOS system at the MOC and all commanding is coordinated and funneled through the ITOS for uplink to the spacecraft.
The station DPS will provide temporary data storage and deliver data products to the Data
Management System after processing is complete for a file. The station DPS can receive the science data in any virtual channel (nominally it is commanded to be downlinked in either VC2 or VC3, but the spacecraft could be commanded to downlink the data in any VC), and performs data accountability. The MOC DPS nominally receives spacecraft housekeeping files on VC1; however, the spacecraft can be commanded to downlink science data in VC1 also. ITOS/DPS then distributes the data to the ITOS/DSM component for eventual transmission to the appropriate science team for further data analysis.

Data Management System
431-ICD-000049
Revision - Dv 3.0
DRAFT
ITOS also provides the functionality for the Data Management System (DMS). This component provides the data file archiving, data file dissemination, and provides a mechanism that can be used to track the delivery of data file products, which the LRO MOC transfers to the other LRO ground segment elements, such as the Ground Networks, the SOCs and the PDS. ITOS/DMS receives the corresponding files from another source, such as FDF or the ITOS/DPS components
(for Vc1, Vc2, and VC3 data files) and performs data transfer and accountability to ensure that the files are delivered to the correct recipient and delivered error free.
2.2.4
Mission Planning System
FlexPlan was chosen as the mission planning system; it provides the short term daily planning and the long term projected planning for mission operations. FlexPlan receives science planning information from the science centers, maneuver planning data from FDF, and spacecraft health and safety commands from the operations team. The LRO mission planner uses the FlexPlan to generate and maintain daily planning activities as well as spacecraft command files that are forwarded to the ITOS for uplink to the spacecraft.
2.2.5
Mission Operations Center – Attitude Determination System
The MOC-ADS provides the attitude determination validation and attitude sensor calibration; it is a COTS/GOTS system developed by the Flight Dynamics Branch at GSFC. It receives the onboard attitude quaternion data from the LRO spacecraft via ITOS/DMS, performs sensor calibration, applies biases and misalignment information to the data, and validates the on-board calculated attitude solutions from the spacecraft.
The MOC-ADS creates the command data for any orbiter off-nadir slews. One such example is to support the LROC instrument slews. LROC sends a file to the MOC. The MOC-ADS element receives the data file and generates a slew plan; this slew is eventually sent to MPS for ingestion and the creation of the daily command load. Also, it handles more than just LROC slews.
2.2.6
Trending and Analysis System
The Integrated Trending and Plotting System (ITPS) was chosen as the trending system; it provides the capability to ingest, store, analyze and display spacecraft health and safety data.
ITPS will ingest and archive all mission housekeeping and engineering data to perform full data analysis and will also process the data to provide a reduced resolution data containing min/max/mean & standard deviation.
2.2.7
Monitoring, Notification and Reporting System
Attention was chosen as the Monitoring, Notification, and Reporting System. This system is resident in the LRO MOC and it provides a comprehensive solution for spacecraft and ground system monitoring. The system interfaces with all MOC ground components, monitoring system

DRAFT events and software tasks. Upon recognizing anomalous events, notification and reporting procedures are in place to ensure that a proper response is received and data is accumulated to research and correct the anomalous behavior. For spacecraft supports the monitoring system creates pass summaries keep a record of all supports including commands sent; procedures executed, and specified event messages. The monitoring system compares entries in these pass log files against a predefined set of limits and checks. If an event or data value is flagged as a problem, the monitoring system issues a notification to one of a selected group of operations personnel of a spacecraft anomaly and providing an informative, textual message identifying the anomaly situation.
2.3
FLIGHT DYNAMICS FACILITY
The FDF provides the prime support for all orbit determination and generation of acquisition data. The FDF is located in Building 28 at GSFC.
During all phases of the LRO mission, the FDF receives the station-tracking data, which includes two-way Doppler tracking, laser ranging data, and ranging data. FDF determines the spacecraft orbit and generates predicted and definitive spacecraft ephemeredes. The predicted ephemeris is used to provide acquisition data to all ground stations. FDF will supply the operations team with all mission planning aids.
The FDF provides processing and control for all maneuvers and generates the trajectory maneuver commands for all mission phases.
2.4
FLIGHT OPERATIONS TEAM
The FOT personnel are responsible for managing the health and safety of the spacecraft following initial acquisition. They are the focal point of LRO GS operations during the life of the mission. In this capacity, they
Coordinate the various operational entities
Conduct operational tests with the spacecraft during the prelaunch phase
Conduct operational testing of the LRO MOC facility systems
Lead the GS operations efforts for the life of the mission
2.5
FLIGHT SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE FACILITY
The Flight Software and Maintenance Facility (FSMF) interfaces with the LRO program’s I&T
GSE system. It is responsible for maintaining the onboard flight software starting approximately
60 days after launch until the end of the mission. This interface is exclusively documented in
LRO Program/SDVF Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) (Reference 2).
2.6
LRO SPACE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK
The LRO mission requires support from a variety of networks identified as the Space
Communications Network (SCN):

1.
The Ka and S-Band antennas located at WS1 will provide the prime station support for the LRO mission.
2.
A second network will provide commercial S-band support for the LRO mission. The
LRO mission contracted this support to the Universal Space Network (USN). The USN
Network Management Center (NMC) is located in Horsham, Pennsylvania. For the
LRO mission, USN uses two prime remote ground stations (RGSs) located at Dongara,
Australia and Weilham, Germany. USN maintains two backup stations to support the
LRO mission and these stations are located at South Point, Hawaii; Kiruna, Sweden.
3.
The DSN, operated by the JPL located in Pasadena, California, maintains three stations at Goldstone, California; Madrid, Spain; and Canberra, Australia. DSN is designated for emergency/backup support for telemetry, tracking, and command interface during the initial acquisition, during any orbit maneuvers, or at any other times when a spacecraft emergency is identified.
4.
Laser Ranging facility, which is located in Greenbelt, Maryland, provides one-way laser time of flight data and an improved lunar gravity model.
5.
The Space Network (SN) will be used for launch support and for post separation coverage.
LRO information for the DSN-to-GS interface is provided in Reference 3. The interfaces between the USN and the LRO GS are documented in detail in References 4 and 5.

FLIGHT DYNAMICS FACILITY PRODUCTS
This section provides the details to the products that the Flight Dynamics Facility creates to support of the LRO mission. FDF creates these products are on a regular basis in support of station acquisition data, science operations centers, maneuver planning and general reports to the
Flight Operations Team.
FDF generates these products using a standard naming convention as defined by the following concepts of a file name and a file extension separated by the standard period (.):
<file name>.<file extension>; where
<file name>
FDFnn_YYYYDOY.HHMMSS_vn; where
FDFnn => 5 ASCII characters in which the nn refers to the identifier listed as the LRO
Ground System Product Matrix; for example
FDF01 = Attitude Determination Report
FDF02 = Attitude Slew Plan
FDF06 = Ground Network Acquisition Data File
YYYYDOY => 7 ASCII characters
YYYY => 4 ASCII characters for the year (2008 – 2013)
DOY => 3 ASCII characters for day of year designator (01 – 366)
HHMMSS => 6 ASCII characters representing the station AOS time
HH => 2 ASCII characters for the AOS hour (00 – 23)
MM => 2 ASCII characters for the AOS minutes (01 – 59)
SS => 2 ASCII characters for the AOS seconds (01 – 59) vnn => 3 ASCII characters to represent the version number for the file.
The initial creation of a file will be represented by version number 01; a subsequent version is
02, 03, etc. The MMDDDOY designation identifies the first time period covered by the data within the file, while the HHMMSS represents the first AOS time contained within the file.
For example, the SCN Station Acquisition Data file would be names with these concepts assuming that the first data point represents October 15, 2008 at HYHMMSS and it was the first generation of the file, this portion of the file name is identified as
FDF06_2006_DOY_HHMMSS_01.inp2
<file extension>
3 ASCII characters representing the type of file; e.g., txt, for a text file inp2 for the FDF generated SCN acquisition data product (version 2 of INP) bsp, for a binary spice (SPK) file, which provides the position and velocity information for the referenced object; the position information is x, y, z referenced information given as Km and the velocity information (xdot, ydot, zdot) referenced as Km/sec. tf, for a text reference frame designation tls, for leap second files

FDF Products for Network Support
This section provides the details on the acquisitions data products that FDF generates; these products are used by the various networks that provide tracking, telemetry and command interfaces to support the LRO mission.
4.1.1.1
SCN Station Acquisition Data
4.1.1.1.1
Product Description
This product file contains acquisition information for each Space Communications Network ground station supporting the LRO telemetry and measurement data downlink or command uplink. FDF creates a separate file for each station supporting the LRO mission
4.1.1.1.2
Support Duration
The FDF will provide the Station Acquisition Data throughout all mission phases, from prelaunch (to support mission rehearsals and other project related tests) up through the actual mission and concluding with end-of-mission support.
4.1.1.1.3
Format
The station acquisition data is formatted as an INP-like data file; this data file consists of ASCII textual data fields that are space delimited. This product is generated such that the time tag information is centered at 1 minute increments.
The file contains the acquisition data for each contact for the station; FDF generates a separate file for each station. Each file will have 1:N lines of header information that identifies the file name and file creation information. This is followed by 1:N lines of station acquisition information. The standard fields and field description (for the 1:N lines of acquisition data) are listed in the following table.
Field name station name timetag information: year day of year and time of day
Field Characteristics
4 ASCII text characters representing the unique station identifies
YYYY DOY HHMMSS.mmm, where
YYYY => 4 ASCII digits of year (2008 – 2013)
DOY => 3 ASCII digits for day of year (1 – 366)
HHMMSS.mmm => 10 ASCII digits with a period between the first 6 and last 3 first 6 are the hours, minutes, and seconds of day last 3 are the milliseconds of day

The WS1 facility has the ability to provide the tracking data in real-time to support mission critical activities that occur during the WS1 station contact period. These mission critical activities are normally associated with early mission activities, such as the spacecraft separation, trans-lunar injection, or lunar insertion. In this event, the data will be one instance of the information that would normally be contained with the UTDF formatted file. As long as data are transmitted in near real time, the file product would not be limited to five-minute durations. In the event of real-time UTDF support, the corresponding data files could be created at hourly intervals. In the event that the station is not able to create a real time connection with FDF, then the station would revert to creating files that are based on capturing five minutes of tracking data.
DSN, which supports LRO through the 34 meter subnet, will provide this data such that it is consistent with the TRK-2-34 format.
The Space Network (SN) supports the LRO mission only during the L&EO mission phase. It provides the data that is captured by TDRSS. The TDRSS tracking data format, a subset of the
NASA Universal Tracking Data Format (UTDF), consists of 75 bytes of contiguous information comprising one sample of data. Tracking data messages (TDMs) consist of one or more standard
NASA/TDRSS 4800 bit data blocks with each block containing from 1 to 7 tracking samples.
The number of samples is a function of simultaneous TDRSS service support.

Stored Data Files (VC0 – VC3)
4.2.1.3.1
Product Description
This interface consists of the downlinked data that are stored in a file format at a station upon receipt of the spacecraft and instrument housekeeping telemetry and the science measurement data. These data are stored with the fill data (VC63) removed. These files are stored at the ground station using their local storage functionality; this storage takes place before the data are routed to the LRO mission unique equipment (MUE). The files are stored for up to seventy-two
(72) hours in the event of a possible retransmission to the LRO MOC upon request by the LRO operations team; this would normally be considered within a contingency support concept.
Additionally, the data can be downlinked as files from the spacecraft and the files would contain the data, as archived onboard the spacecraft, since the last real-time station contact. For LRO, the spacecraft will downlink the VC1 and VC2 data using S-band stations; the VC2 and VC3 data are downlinked using the LRO Ka-Band station at White Sands (WS1).

System Change indicator (SCH). A flag to increment for every major change to the system (hardware or software). After the value '9' return to '0', and then continue incrementing. The station and data centers should keep a log in a standard format of the value used, the date of the change, and a description of the change.
'0'
System Configuration Indicator (SCI). A flag used to indicate alternative modes of operation for a system (e.g., choice of alternative timers or detectors, or use of a different mode of operation for high satellites). Each value of the flag indicates a particular configuration, which is described in a log file held at the station and at the data centers. If only a single configuration is used then use a fixed value.
If a new configuration is introduced then use the next higher flag value. If value exceeds '9' then return to '0', overwriting a previous configuration flag (it is not likely that a station will have 10 current possible configurations).
'1'
'3' Format Revision Number Indicator - indicates the version of the MERIT II format for the current record. Data prior to MERIT II that is converted into the MERIT II format will have a revision number of '0'.
Release Flag Indicator - indicates when this record first appeared on a release tape. Cooperating stations which send release tapes to the CDDIS will use a numbering scheme beginning with '1'. Release tapes from the CDDIS will have a labeling scheme beginning with 'A'.
Non-operational engineering data will have a release flag of
'Z'. Data released prior to the MERIT II implementation will have a release flag of '0'.

Specifications on the Fullrate format:
1) A field should be blank if a value does not apply or if the value is unknown.
2) All fields should have trailing '0' fill when the accuracy of the field value is less than the accuracy of the format.
3) The range and all correction fields are in two way time units of picoseconds for both accuracy and consistency.
4) All correction field values, except the center of mass, are represented such that they would be subtracted from the laser range when applied. The center of mass value is represented such that it would be added to the laser range when applied.
