Abstract:

Designing fault-tolerant satellite systems is a challenging engineering task. Often behavior of satellite systems is structured using notion of modes. Ensuring correctness of mode transitions is vital for guaranteeing safe and fault-tolerant functioning of a satellite. In this paper, we propose an approach to designing fault-tolerant satellite systems in SystemC. We demonstrate how to develop Attitude and Orbit Control System in SystemC and verify its correctness via model checking.
