High-speed space laser communication terminals as the most efficient information transmission device

Problem statement. During the development of on-board facilities of the space global monitoring systems, most of the financial and time costs fall on the control and testing stage. In this connection, there is a need to reduce the cost of development and the timing of the creation of on-board facilities.

Goal. To develop a methodology or estimating the number of full-scale operations during the control and testing of on-board facilities.

Results. Using the assessment of the probability of obtaining the final result in one in-kind operation of testing the onboard facilities of the space global monitoring system, the method of expert assessments, as well as object-characteristic tables, a methodology for estimating the number of in-kind operations during the control and testing of onboard facilities of the space global monitoring systems has been developed.

Practical significance. The proposed methodology for estimating the number of full-scale operations can be used for monitoring and testing not only on-board facilities of the space global monitoring system, but also complex technical systems containing separate elements with hardware and software parts.
