Propulsion Subsystem
Propulsion Subsystem is the spacecraft subsystem responsible for generating and managing thrust, propellant use, and maneuver execution. It is the propulsion portion of the vehicle architecture.
Hardware
QOS
QOS is a set of mechanisms used to prioritize and manage network traffic by controlling how bandwidth, delay, and loss are handled for different traffic classes.
Operations
Quality Of Service
Quality Of Service is the degree to which a service or network meets defined performance characteristics such as delay, loss, and bandwidth.
Operations
Queue Management
Queue Management is the handling of packet queues in a device or system so delay, loss, and fairness can be controlled.
Operations
Radar
Radar is a radio sensing system that transmits electromagnetic energy, receives reflections, and processes them to infer the presence, distance, velocity, or other properties of objects. It is used for…
Hardware
Radiator Panel
Radiator Panel is a thermal control surface that rejects heat from a system by radiating thermal energy to the environment, removing excess onboard heat through passive radiation.
Hardware
Radio Access Network
A radio access network is the collection of radio access equipment, control logic, and supporting transport that connects endpoints to a mobile or wireless service. It manages radio resources, mobility,…
Concept/Framework
Ranging Signal
Ranging Signal is a signal used to measure distance, timing, or propagation characteristics between endpoints or within a communications system. It provides a reference for ranging or calibration.
Protocol
Reaction Wheel
Reaction Wheel is an attitude control device that changes a spacecraft's orientation by accelerating or braking an internal spinning mass, providing propellant-free pointing control through conservation of angular momentum.
Hardware
Real Time Control
Real Time Control is control behavior that must be executed within defined timing limits to be correct. In this context, timing is part of the system requirement, not just a…
