Static Routing
Static routing is a routing method in which routes are explicitly configured by an operator rather than learned through a routing protocol. The router forwards traffic according to those fixed…
Concept/Framework
Station Keeping
Station Keeping is the operational process of maintaining a spacecraft or satellite within its assigned orbital position and attitude limits through periodic maneuvers and corrections.
Operations
Storm Avoidance Data Link
Storm Avoidance Data Link is the communications link used to transmit storm-avoidance advisories, forecasts, or route changes to Maritime operators. It supports safety-aware navigation and enables timely operational response to…
Protocol
Subnet
A subnet is a portion of a network’s address space that has been divided into a smaller routable segment. It is used to group hosts, control traffic, and simplify administration.
Concept/Framework
Subnet Mask
Subnet Mask is a bitmask used to separate the network and host portions of an IP address in IPv4 and similar address structures. It defines the subnet boundary.
Protocol
Sun Sensor
Sun Sensor is an attitude sensor that determines spacecraft orientation by detecting the direction of the Sun and translating that measurement into an angular reference for the spacecraft.
Hardware
Switching
Switching is the process of forwarding frames, packets, or flows across a network according to addressing or forwarding rules. It is used to connect endpoints and segments inside a network…
Concept/Framework
Synchronous Transmission
Synchronous Transmission is transmission that uses a shared timing reference so sender and receiver remain aligned during communication. It depends on coordinated timing.
Protocol
System Noise Temperature
System Noise Temperature is a measure of the total noise contribution of a receiver system expressed as an equivalent temperature.
Hardware
System Performance
System performance is the measured effectiveness with which a system delivers its intended outputs under actual operating conditions. It combines technical efficiency, stability, and service quality into a practical operational…
