Abaco Systems / SBS 4427-V CCSDS Encoder / Decoder Module

The Abaco Systems/SBS 4427-V is a VMEbus-based CCSDS Encoder/Decoder Module providing independent encoding and decoding operations compliant with Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems standards. The module implements telemetry channel coding defined in CCSDS 101.0-B-3, delivering hardware-accelerated signal processing for space communications payloads.

– Technical Specifications

The encoder implements convolutional encoding, Reed-Solomon encoding, symbol interleaving, Attached Sync Marker (ASM) insertion, and bit-stream randomization. Decoding functions include Viterbi decoding, Reed-Solomon decoding, symbol deinterleaving, frame synchronization, and bit-stream derandomization. All setup parameters and status readback interface through VMEbus connectivity.

– Key Features

• Independent encode and decode signal paths
• Full CCSDS 101.0-B-3 telemetry channel coding compliance
• Hardware-based Viterbi and Reed-Solomon processing
• ASM insertion and frame synchronization
• Bit-stream randomization and derandomization
• VMEbus control and monitoring interface

– Typical Applications

The 4427-V supports telemetry downlink processing in satellite systems, deep-space probes, and ground station equipment. Applications include real-time signal conditioning for mission-critical communications where CCSDS standards compliance is mandated.

– Compatibility & Integration

Designed for VMEbus systems. Fully compliant with CCSDS 101.0-B-3 Blue Book standard for space data systems telemetry encoding and decoding.
