International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / A large selection of hardware and software components are readily available for supporting Internet
communication in the ground network environment. These components can be used to construct
very powerful and flexible communication systems. The Operating Missions as Nodes on the
Internet (OMNI) project at NASA/GSFC has been defining and demonstrating ways to use standard
Internet technologies for future space communication. Theses concepts and technologies are also
applicable to test range telemetry applications.
This paper identifies the network equipment and protocols to support end-to-end IP communication
from range sensors and spacecraft instruments to end users. After identifying the end-to-end
network hardware and software components, the paper discusses which ones are currently available
and lists specific examples of each. This includes examples of space missions currently using
Internet technology for end-to-end communication. It also lists missing pieces and includes
information on their current status. The goal of this paper is also to stimulate thought and discussion
on what steps need to be taken to start filling in the remaining missing pieces for end-to-end range
and space network connectivity.
