Pleiades Neo and RTEMS?

[Seronie-Vivien, Jacques]

Airbus Amber
Hi All,

Airbus doesn't communicate much about its internal designs but it's no secret that we use RTEMS on most of our satellite platforms (earth observation, telecommunication, navigation and science) and also on Rosalind Franklin (aka Exomars) rover.

We use an old (but stable and well known!) 4.6.6 version on Erc32/Leon2/Leon3 processors in most of our central computers and in some cases in instrument control units.
We have been using RTEMS for two decades and we are very happy of the very sound implementation. No in operation problem was ever linked to an RTEMS defect!

So Pléiades Neo is no exception and relies on RTEMS for its central software (i.e. software in the central computer).


Kind regards
Jacques
