International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 18-21, 2004 / Town & Country Resort, San Diego, California / The Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) developed the CCSDS File Delivery
Protocol (CFDP) to provide reliable delivery of files across space links. Space links are typically
intermittent, requiring flexibility on the part of CFDP. Some aspects of that flexibility will be
highlighted in this paper, which discusses the planned use of CFDP on the Global Precipitation
Measurement (GPM) mission.
The operational scenario for GPM involves reliable downlink of science data files at a high datarate
(approximately 4 megabits per second) over a space link that is not only intermittent, but also one-way
most of the time. This paper will describe how that scenario is easily handled by CFDP, despite
the fact that reliable delivery requires a feedback loop.
