4.5.2 - Payload Element Systems Engineering

4.5.2-8 Level 2 Tasks

Tasks Applicable Mission Phases Description SFWC Artifacts References
4.5.2-8-1 Ensure that all interfaces are identified, requirements are defined, and are consistent with interface control documents Phase B | Phase C | Ensure that all interface requirements are defined by Preliminary Design Review, completed and presented by Critical Design Review. Ensure that both physical and functional interfaces are defined. NA NA Space Vehicle Systems Engineering Handbook, TOR-2006(8506)-4494, Major Interfaces Chapter
4.5.2-8-2 Ensure end-to-end compatibility of the payload with all others systems and external systems involved in the specific functionality Phase B | Phase C | Phase D1 | Ensure the Payload POC has a good understanding of other subsystems which interface with the payload and be able to determine if the defined interface is adequate to ensure proper mission operation and functionality. This understanding is especially critical when anomalies arise that involve several subsystems and necessitate a high system view in order to objectively address problems and solutions in the context of the overall program.

4.5.2-8-3 Ensure all interfaces are tested in an operational-like environment Phase D1 | Ensure that the interface testing is described and consistent with the verification planning NA NA Space Vehicle Systems Engineering Handbook, TOR-2006(8506)-4494, Major Interfaces Chapter
