Scope

This Standard defines the concept for an OBCP system, identifying the on-board functionality for OBCP execution and the ground functionality for OBCP preparation and subsequent control.

This Standard also defines the development lifecycle for OBCPs and identifies the relationships of this lifecycle with the overall space system, and in particular with the other elements of the on-board software.

This Standard assumes that missions implementing OBCPs are also compliant with ECSS-E-70-41, since a number of services contained therein are invoked in support of the operation of OBCPs and their interaction with the ground.

This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
