BS ISO 21323:2016 is designed to be applicable to any kind of space mission or
infrastructure that is communication-resource poor and is subject to long latencies and/or
temporary network partitions, regardless of complexity. It is intended that this Recommended
Standard become a uniform standard among all CCSDS Agencies. In addition, this
specification exists to utilize the underlying service of various internetworking protocols
both onboard and in transit between ground and space-based assets.This Recommended Standard is intended to be applied to all systems that claim conformance
to the CCSDS Bundle Protocol. It is agnostic to the choice of underlying transmission
protocol in that BP can function over AOS, Space Packet, Proximity-1 Space Link Protocol,
and various Internet and ground based protocols.The CCSDS believes it is important to document the rationale underlying the
recommendations chosen, so that future evaluations of proposed changes or improvements
will not lose sight of previous decisions. The concept and rationale for the use of a bundle
protocol in space links may be found in reference [H1].Cross References:RFC 5050:2007ISO/IEC 10731:1994ISO/IEC 7498-1:1994RFC 6260:2011CCSDS 734.1-B-1:2015RFC 5405:2008CCSDS 133.1-B-2:2009RFC 5326:2008RFC 6255:2011CCSDS 734.0-G-1:2010CCSDS A02.1-Y-4:2014All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
