Abstract:

A mission-critical error was discovered in the communications link between the Cassini spacecraft and its Huygens probe when it was determined that the radio frequencies would not adjust for Doppler effect. This parameter was not isolated during the pre-launch verification process. The recommendations affirm the need for (1) end-to-end testing of communications links, (2) a high fidelity telecommunications testbed, and (3) referencing Doppler effects on subcarriers in an appropriate procedure.
