The terrestrial RFI regions which impact TOPEX's telecommunications operations are being mapped by the TOPEX/Poseidon Project.
Following launch the TOPEX/Poseidon flight team began a complex sequence of maneuvers to place the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite in it's operational orbit.
The TOPEX/Poseidon Project Satellite Performance Analysis Team's roles and responsibilities have grown to include functions that are typically performed by other teams on JPL flight projects.
The TOPEX/Poseidon Project Satellite Performance Analysis Team's (SPAT) roles and responsibilities have grown to include functions that are typically performed by other teams on JPL flight projects. In particular, SPAT Telecommunication's role has expanded beyond the nominal function of monitoring, assessing, characterizing, and trending the spacecraft RF/telecom subsystem to one of End-to-End Information Systems (EEIS) monitoring. This has been accomplished by taking advantage of the spacecraft and ground data system structures and protocols.
