Simulation and Test Platform for Application Software Systems of Space Instrumentation Ships

A close-to-mission simulation and test environment is built for thorough test of sea-going spaceflight tracking and control application systems to overcome the discrepancy of traditional test methods.Following introduction of the functional requirements of the test platform,this paper describes the configuration and information interaction relationship of the system.A reconfigurable simulation and test design is proposed.Description of simulation model and test procedures based on the platform is given.Applications in mission operations verify design of the simulation and test platform.With adequate flexibility,it meets all test requirements of sea-going spaceflight tracking and control application systems.
