BS ISO 20105:2015 CCSDS File Delivery Protocol (CFDP-reference [1]) has been designed to support the
transfer of files in a variety of mission scenarios. CFDP offers different qualities of service
ranging from best effort to fully reliable and has been specifically optimized for long delay,
noisy, and disjoint links. CFDP requires a simple minimum service from the underlying
protocols, operating over any link providing a packet communication service.The purpose of this document is to specify how to operate CFDP over the CCSDS
Encapsulation Service (reference [2]) as provided for Earth-to-spacecraft, spacecraft-to-
Earth, and spacecraft-to-spacecraft communications. It sets out the communications
architecture for CFDP operating over the Encapsulation Service. It describes the service
expected by CFDP of the underlying layers and reconciles this with the service provided by
the Encapsulation Service.Cross References:CCSDS 727.0-B-4:2007CCSDS 133.1-B-2:2009CCSDS 211.0-B-5:2013CCSDS 232.0-B-2:2010CCSDS 132.0-B-1:2003CCSDS 732.0-B-2:2006ISO/IEC 7498-1:1994CCSDS 720.1-G-3:2007CCSDS 720.2-G-3:2007CCSDS 720.3-G-1:2007All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
