A generic satellite simulation framework design and implementation

The Satellite Simulation Technology today is widely used by many famous space researching organizations in the world, almost each of them has its customized simulation system which has been contributing much on various of successful satellite designs, however, there hasn't been a generic framework to simplify complicated satellite design, this leads to significant investment on R & D costs, on the other hand, incompatible simulation interface results in many restrictions for international satellite technology sharing, which eventually limits the space researching progress for the human being on this planet. This paper introduces a Generic Satellite Simulation Framework (GSSF) which could resolve these problems and make satellite simulation technology go further and faster in the future, it raises a new concept called Data Stream based Interface which is the key of the whole framework. To verify its feasibility, the paper also shows the simulation design and implementation for the Generic Electronic Subsystem (GES).
