Abstract :
We present the telecommunications protocol processing subsystem using reconfigurable interoperable gate arrays (TRIGA), a novel approach that unifies fault tolerance and inter-planetary communication protocol offloading to implement CCSDS file delivery protocol and datalink layers. The new reconfigurable architecture offers more than one order of magnitude throughput increase while reducing footprint requirements in memory, command and data handling processor utilization, communication system interconnects and power consumption
