Learn about how you can represent your spacecraft details in Azure Orbital Ground Station.
The spacecraft resource captures three types of information:
The spacecraft ephemeris is captured in Azure Orbital Ground Station using a Two-Line Element, or TLE.
A TLE is associated with the spacecraft to determine contact opportunities at the time of scheduling. The TLE is also used to determine the path the antenna must follow during the contact as the spacecraft passes over the ground station during contact execution.
As TLEs are prone to expiration, the user must keep the TLE up-to-date using the TLE update procedure. A TLE that is more than two weeks old might result in an unsuccessful contact.
Make sure to capture each link that you wish to use with Azure Orbital Ground Station when you create the spacecraft resource. The following details are required:
Field | Values |
---|---|
Direction | Uplink or Downlink |
Center Frequency | Center frequency in MHz |
Bandwidth | Bandwidth in MHz |
Polarization | RHCP, LHCP, or Linear Vertical |
Dual polarization schemes are represented by two individual links with their respective LHCP and RHCP polarizations.
In order to uphold regulatory requirements across the world, the spacecraft resource contains authorizations for specific links and sites that permit usage of the Azure Orbital Ground Station sites.
The platform will deny scheduling or execution of contacts if the spacecraft resource links aren't authorized. The platform will also deny contact if a profile contains links that aren't included in the spacecraft resource authorized links.
Learn how to initiate ground station licensing and authorize a spacecraft resource.
Learn how to create and authorize a spacecraft resource in the Azure portal or Azure Orbital Ground Station API.
Spacecraft resources can be modified and deleted via the Azure portal or the Azure Orbital Ground Station API. Once the spacecraft resource is created, modification to the resource is dependent on the authorization status:
To delete the spacecraft resource, you must first delete all scheduled contacts associated with that spacecraft resource. See contact resource for more information.
To delete a spacecraft via the Azure portal, navigate to the spacecraft resource. Click 'Overview' on the left panel, then click 'Delete.' Alternatively, use the Spacecrafts REST Operation Group to delete a spacecraft with the Azure Orbital Ground Station API.
