Networking on the International Space Station Presentation by Bradley Roach 10/09/2007

Objectives of Discussion To highlight and discuss the following areas of the Operations Local Area Network (OPS LAN) system used to facilitate communication between laptop computers on the International Space Station. Network Topology Networking Protocols Network Devices RF Connectivity Cabled Connectivity

Topology of OPS LAN OPS LAN uses a Multipoint Ethernet Bus Topology Multipoint enables the hub to send information to one or more systems based on a specific address. Uses IEEE (Regular Ethernet) Uses IEEE (Wireless Ethernet) The OPS LAN 10BASE2 cable backbone uses RG-58 coax cabling. Uses BNC connectors and terminators.

Network Protocols Used On OPS LAN Protocol- Collection of rules and procedures governing communication among the computers and network devices of the network. NetBEUI (NetBIOS Extended User Interface) Very fast but non-routable Self-tuning and self-configuring Suitable for small networks such as OPS LAN Uses broadcasts to locate other computers on the network. TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) Most common network protocol in the world Routable

Network Devices Used On OPS LAN The following network devices implemented in OPS LAN will be discussed: File Server Various client laptops RF access points Mass Storage Device Printers Routers

File Server IBM ThinkPad 760XD Equipped with SSC (Station Support Computer) server software load. Uses Microsoft Windows NT Server File server is operated from the service module of the ISS.

SSC Clients IBM ThinkPad 760XD Microsoft Windows 95b During early missions, these clients communicated on the network via RF cards. In later missions, the clients will communicate via or 802.3

Early Communication System/Orbital Communication Adapter Early Communication System Laptop is IBM ThinkPad 755C Attached to a docking station to which an Orbital Communication Adaptor and Video Conferencing adapted are attached. Primary function is to provide communication and data transfer from space to ground. Primary printer used on OPS LAN is an Epson Color Stylus 800 which has been modified for low gravity operation

RF Connectivity Operates in the 2.4ghz frequency band Throughput via RF PC cards is 12MB/min; Expected throughput is between 3.5 and 5.5 MB/Min. To prevent RF interference and unauthorized eavesdropping, Spread Spectrum Technology is used. With this technology, the radio signal “hops” from frequency to frequency within a specified band(ISM – ) over a set time. Both the transmitter and the receiver know what the hopping pattern is, and are then able to decipher the information. Each hopping pattern is called a channel, and up to fifteen channels are available.

RF Network Adapter/Access Point RangeLAN PC card This adapter is a type II pc card Attached to the PC card is an omnidirectional dipole antenna 7520 RangeLAN2/AP-II MAC layer bridge Connects to the coax backbone Relays packet information from coax backbone to Laptops at a rate of 14,800 packets/sec
