CCSDS 232.1-B-1, COMMUNICATIONS OPERATIONS REQUIREMENTS PROCEDURE (BLUE BOOK)

CCSDS 232.1-B-1, COMMUNICATIONS OPERATIONS REQUIREMENTS PROCEDURE (BLUE BOOK). This document is a technical Recommendation for use in developing flight and ground systems for space missions and has been prepared by the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS). The Communications Operation Procedure-1 (COP-1) described herein is intended for missions that are cross-supported between Agencies of the CCSDS. This Recommendation specifies an automatic retransmission procedure to be used by space missions to transfer space application data over a ground-to-space or space-to-space communications link. This Recommendation has been developed from an existing CCSDS Recommendation that specifies Command Operation Procedure-1 (reference [B2]), which defines essentially the same procedure but in a slightly different context.
