Module: cssComm

Executive Summary

This module is responsible for correcting the raw CSS output values to the expected cosine values. This requires a pre-calibrated Chebyshev residual model which calculates the expected deviation from the expected CSS cosine output given a raw CSS measurement at a given distance from the sun. More information on can be found in the PDF Description.

Message Connection Descriptions

The following table lists all the module input and output messages. The module msg connection is set by the user from python. The msg type contains a link to the message structure definition, while the description provides information on what this message is used for.

Functions

void SelfInit_cssProcessTelem(CSSConfigData *configData, int64_t moduleID)

This method initializes the configData for theCSS sensor interface. It checks to ensure that the inputs are sane and then creates the output message

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with the CSS sensor interface

• moduleID – The ID associated with the configData

void Update_cssProcessTelem(CSSConfigData *configData, uint64_t callTime, int64_t moduleID)

This method takes the raw sensor data from the coarse sun sensors and converts that information to the format used by the CSS nav.

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with the CSS interface

• callTime – The clock time at which the function was called (nanoseconds)

• moduleID – The ID associated with the configData

void Reset_cssProcessTelem(CSSConfigData *configData, uint64_t callTime, int64_t moduleID)

This method performs a complete reset of the module. Local module variables that retain time varying states between function calls are reset to their default values.

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with the guidance module

• callTime – The clock time at which the function was called (nanoseconds)

• moduleID – The ID associated with the configData

struct CSSConfigData

#include <cssComm.h>

Top level structure for the CSS sensor interface system. Contains all parameters for the CSS interface.
