Computer requirements of self contained guidance, navigation and control system onboard manned orbital space station
The design optimization and simulation effort of the voter-comparator switch (VCS) element are described. The VCS is an adaptive voter element that performs failure detection and reconfiguration function in a computer system designed to tolerate any three single failures in a fail operational fail operational fail safe manner. Detailed logic equations were developed and the design was evaluated and refined using a logic level fault simulator.
