4.5.3.3.2 Coordinated MSI Configuration Control<br />

As taking part to the overall operability of the instrument as well as driving its performance inflight,<br />

the configuration of some MSI parameter tables loaded on-board will be managed by<br />

the <strong>PDGS</strong> under strict configuration control. The MSI tables managed by the <strong>PDGS</strong> are:<br />

○ The Non Uniformity Coefficients (NUC) table<br />

○ The Front-End Electronics (FEE) table<br />

○ The set of seven Image Processing Parameter Sets (IPS) tables<br />

○ The Thermal Control Module (TCM) tables, TCM-SBY and TCM-NOM<br />

Other tables such as the WICOM microcode and the Global Parameter table will be managed<br />

directly by the FOS.<br />

The uplink and activation operations of these tables will be performed by the FOS (cf. section<br />

4.3.7.2) and will be coordinated via the Special Operation Request (SOR) interface of the<br />

FOS. This interface associates a desired activation time to the table data deposited<br />

separately on the FOS server. The FOS will reply to every SOR by an SOR acknowledge<br />

providing the planned activation time.<br />

The <strong>PDGS</strong> will feed every new parameter table to the FOS with sufficient time in advance<br />

allowing for uplink and on-board activation operations (e.g. following uplink, a new NUC table<br />

activation on-board will need preliminary transfer from the OBC to the MSI requiring about 15<br />

minutes to be executed in the eclipse phase of the instrument). In counterpart, It is assumed<br />

the acknowledged time will not exceed 24 hours after the desired timing expressed in the<br />

SOR.<br />

4.5.4 CORE MISSION OPERATIONS<br />

The core mission operation concepts are based to a large extent on the MRD [AD-01] and on<br />

the mission simulations reported in [RD-19], while justifying the needed extrapolations when<br />

relevant.<br />

4.5.4.1 On-Board Sensor Acquisition<br />

4.5.4.1.1 MSI Acquisition<br />

According to the MRD [AD-01], the <strong>Sentinel</strong>-2 mission nominal acquisition scenario is<br />

targeting the systematic and continuous acquisition with the MSI of all land surfaces between<br />

56 South latitude (Cape horn in South America) and 84 North latitude (up to northern<br />

Greenland) including major islands (greater than 100 km2 size), EU islands and all the other<br />

small islands located at less than 20km from the coastline. In addition it is required to acquire<br />

the whole Mediterranean Sea, all inland water bodies and all closed seas.<br />
