4. Set date and location for next meeting (All)
5. A.O.B.
During the presentation on ECSS it was agreed that MM shall request
from ECSS Secretariat the installation of a joint work folder for WG
members on the ECSS website
AI-1 (MM)
16/10/2015
The ECSS presentation also covered the usual timescales for similar
ECSS drafting activities. Based on this MM will prepare a schedule as
proposal.
AI-2 (MM)
16/10/2015
The proposed schedule (AI-2) will be agreed/supplemented by the WG
members within two weeks after disclosure
AI-3 (WG
members)
AI-2 + 2
weeks
No consensus has been found on CR-E-ST-10-04C_18_2 (Radiation
Belt Models AP9 / AE9). It is unclear in which situation it is
reasonable to use the newer models rather than the older ones. It was
agreed to identity those orbits/missions for which the currently
specified radiation belt models (AE8/AP8) are deficient. [It is
understood that all parties share their information/knowledge on
model/data comparisons]. The resulting list shall be discussed in a
dedicated WG meeting (see AI-12).
AI-4 (WG
members)
next WG
meeting
A document summarizing the proposed approach for SEP modeling
will be provided by PJ to the WG.
AI-5 (PJ)
Feb 2016
An update of the FLUMIC charging model has been requested by CR
18_9. Another ECSS WG is currently drafting an ECSS Charging
Handbook which is closely related. The favoured model to supersede
FLUMIC is MOBE-DIC. A document summarizing the status of this
model will be provided by DR.
AI-6 (DR)
next WG
meeting
All editorial CRs (marked ‘MM’ in the table) will be implemented in a
change-tracked document by MM for next WG meeting.
AI-7 (MM)
next WG
meeting
The agreements reached in the CR discussions (3.) are recorded in the
attached excel file. Main actions will be highlighted in the following:

Description
It was unclear in the CR list what the CR on TID/TNID refers to. MM
will check and report at the next meeting.
Action
AI-8 (MM)
Due Date
next WG
meeting
It was proposed to remove Contamination from the document as it is
strictly seen not a space environment. The WG had a heterogeneous
opinion on this. It was agreed to discuss this with the TA(AR).
AI-9 (MM)
next WG
meeting
It was agreed to involve additional parties as Space Debris Office and
Flight Dynamics. Identify individuals and find appropriate form of
interaction with WG.
AI-10 (MM)
next WG
meeting
It was agreed to check the New Work Item Proposal and send a brief
statement of agreement or a track-recorded document indicating the
desired changes to MM. An agreement in the meeting was not
achieved because the WG decided to first assess the actual changes to
be implemented in the activity before defining the schedule and
possibly NWIP change requests. However, at the end of the meeting
day all CRs were discussed but there was insufficient time to translate
this into a schedule and adapt the NWIP.
AI-11 (all
WG
members)
30 Oct
It was agreed to have a meeting at Airbus DS in Toulouse as soon as
possible (expected end of Nov) to agree on CR-E-ST-10-04C_18_2
(Radiation Belt Models AP9/AE9). This meeting is also crucial to
agree on a share of activities between WG members. A doodle to
identify dates will be set up by MM and populated by the WG
members.
AI-12 (all
WG
members)
23 Oct
Conclusions:
Not all objectives of the meeting were met due to the limited
timeframe. All CRs have been discussed and apart CR-E-ST-1004C_18_2 (Radiation Belt Models AP9/AE9) an agreement has been
found. The unfulfilled objectives and the next steps which are
necessary to start the actual drafting activity shall be resolved in a
meeting as soon as possible (envisaged: Nov 2015).
