Development of Ground Station Performance Information System for LAPAN Satellite Operations

Indonesian National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) has three micro satellites in orbit: LAPAN-A1/TUBSAT, LAPAN-A2/ORARI, and LAPAN-A3/IPB satellites. To operate these satellites, LAPAN has five ground stations in Indonesia and ground station in Spitsbergen, Norway. The ground station in...

More Information
Summary:Indonesian National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) has three micro satellites in orbit: LAPAN-A1/TUBSAT, LAPAN-A2/ORARI, and LAPAN-A3/IPB satellites. To operate these satellites, LAPAN has five ground stations in Indonesia and ground station in Spitsbergen, Norway. The ground station in Indonesia consists of ground station in Rumpin and Rancabungur (Bogor, West Java), Bukittinggi (West Sumatra), Parepare (South Sulawesi) and Biak (Papua). These ground stations operate daily to support satellite operations, namely Telemetry, Tracking, and Command (TT&C) and satellite data acquisition. The information showing the performance of the TT&C ground station is needed as a reference in carrying out periodic maintenance of the ground stations. The performance of TT&C ground station can be calculated from the ratio of success and failure in sending commands and receiving telemetry data from satellites. To accommodate these data necessities, an information system with the ability to measure the performance of the TT&C ground station is needed. This paper describes the results of the development of a web-based TT&C performance information system for ground stations supporting LAPAN satellite operations. This information system can work well, successfully tested to calculate TT&C ground station performance on July 2021, and has four main views which have dashboard page, Pass data page, Command data page, and summary page of search result by satellite, ground station, and time including chart with three types of charts, namely three graphs with polar, geo-map, and two axes which are x as azimuth and y as elevation.
