Integral Technical Scheme of Payloads System for Chinese Mars-1 Exploration

Abstract

Science objectives and payloads configuration for Chinese Mars-1 exploration project are introduced. Integral technical scheme of the payloads system are introduced，including the power supply，telecontrol and telemetry，science data processing，onboard autonomous，and the major program of workflow. According to the complex functions and decentralized placement of the Mars-1 orbiter payloads system，a dedicated payload-controller is designed to organically link the system through bus network，providing a unitive electrical interface with the orbiter platform. According to the restriction on the weight，volume and power supply of the Mars-1 rover payloads system，a public payload-controller is designed，integrating most of the main control units of the rover payloads，and realizing centralized control and management.
