TECHNICAL ABSTRACT ( Limit 2000 characters, approximately 200 words)
The proposed work seeks to drastically increase the capability of the lossless data compression technology embedded in the currently used flight part known as USES (Universal Source Encoder for Space). USES met the CCSDS 121-0-B 1 recommendation. New advances to the lossless data compression electronic technology which advances the current flight electronics device:
? Increase quantization levels to 32 bits; the current device supports only 15 bits.
? Support multi-frequency simultaneous inputs, at least three to represent color inputs.
? Increase speed from 20 MSamples/sec to 200 M Samples/sec
? Realize in a radiation tolerant 0.25 micron CMOS process
POTENTIAL NASA COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS ( Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)
Image Data compression for future satellite missions.
POTENTIAL NON-NASA COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS ( Limit 1500 characters, approximately 150 words)
Lossless data compression for medical Image data. Important that no data is compressed out of medical images.
NASA's technology taxonomy has been developed by the SBIR-STTR program to disseminate awareness of proposed and awarded R/R&D in the agency. It is a listing of over 100 technologies, sorted into broad categories, of interest to NASA. |
