11. Ground model for JUICE on-board memory

 

ESA supervisor: Ana Mestre
Collaborator(s): Nicolas Altobelli

Site: ESAC

The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, faces a significant challenge due to the limited data rate for transmitting science data from Jupiter back to Earth. To address this, effective on-board memory management is essential to ensure all necessary data is downloaded in a timely manner, avoiding data loss and planning for upcoming science observation oportunities. This project aims to develop a ground model that simulates JUICE's on-board memory status over time to aid the data downlink prioritization process.

Project duration: 6 months.

Desirable expertise or programming language:

  • Programming and testing.
  • Python.
  • Algorithm design.
  • Data processing.
