Non Flight Apps #785

Closed blueed9696 closed 2 months ago

blueed9696 commented 4 months ago

I'm trying to build a RF communication app and trying to reference other app codes. However, I could find the apps in cFS repository are non flight applications.

What makes them to become a non flight purpose? Is it because it doesn't have RF system?

I think it is a liability thing. Every flight system is different and you would need to configure the app for it and make sure it is a fit for your need.

It has been our experience that RF communications is very unique from one mission to the next. Whether it is due to the transceiver hardware, multiple antennas, encryption, data rates, or how the hardware is attached to the spacecraft bus. Some efforts have been made recently to at least separate the protocol processing (e.g. - CCSDS standards) from the hardware interface but that is not always as simple as it sounds either because special operational circumstances seem to always pop up.
