Very High Speed Data-Interface Technology For Demanding Space Applications
VHiSSI is an ambitious, multi-partner European project which aims to create very high-speed data-interface technology, suitable for a wide range of demanding space applications - a critical component technology for telecommunications and Earth observation spacecraft.
The VHiSSI research programme will leverage prior and ongoing research on the emerging ESA SpaceFibre standard to provide a complete solution for spacecraft onboard data-links and networks, including robustness and quality of service. It aims to provide Europe with important network technology for on-board spacecraft use which will enhance the technical capabilities of the European space industry, enabling it to compete effectively on the world market.
